Hmm...had time to dig into this a bit deeper and looking at
build_overlap_sched_groups(), specifically this bit of code:
kernel/sched/core.c:
5066 static int
5067 build_overlap_sched_groups(struct sched_domain *sd, int cpu)
5068 {
...
5109 /*
5110 * Initialize sgp->power such that even if we mess up the
5111 * domains and no possible iteration will get us here, we won't
5112 * die on a /0 trap.
5113 */
5114 sg->sgp->power = SCHED_POWER_SCALE * cpumask_weight(sg_span);
I'm wondering whether the same precaution should be used when it comes to sg->sgp->power_orig.
Cheers,
Hedi.
