From: Dmitry Adamushko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> o Fixed a mail client (shouldn't be white-space damaged now); o Andrew, a patch against SD will follow.
--- o Make TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR(task, rq) return "true" only if the task's prio is higher than the current's one and the task is in the "active" array. This ensures we don't make redundant resched_task() calls when the task is in the "expired" array (as may happen now in set_user_prio(), rt_mutex_setprio() and pull_task() ) ; o generilise conditions for a call to resched_task() in set_user_nice(), rt_mutex_setprio() and sched_setscheduler() Signed-off-by: Dmitry Adamushko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- --- linux-2.6.21-rc6/kernel/sched-orig.c 2007-04-07 17:16:16.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.21-rc6/kernel/sched.c 2007-04-07 18:13:49.000000000 +0200 @@ -168,7 +168,7 @@ unsigned long long __attribute__((weak)) (MAX_BONUS / 2 + DELTA((p)) + 1) / MAX_BONUS - 1)) #define TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR(p, rq) \ - ((p)->prio < (rq)->curr->prio) + (((p)->prio < (rq)->curr->prio) && ((p)->array == (rq)->active)) #define SCALE_PRIO(x, prio) \ max(x * (MAX_PRIO - prio) / (MAX_USER_PRIO / 2), MIN_TIMESLICE) @@ -3847,13 +3847,13 @@ void rt_mutex_setprio(struct task_struct struct prio_array *array; unsigned long flags; struct rq *rq; - int oldprio; + int delta; BUG_ON(prio < 0 || prio > MAX_PRIO); rq = task_rq_lock(p, &flags); - oldprio = p->prio; + delta = prio - p->prio; array = p->array; if (array) dequeue_task(p, array); @@ -3869,13 +3869,11 @@ void rt_mutex_setprio(struct task_struct enqueue_task(p, array); /* * Reschedule if we are currently running on this runqueue and - * our priority decreased, or if we are not currently running on - * this runqueue and our priority is higher than the current's + * our priority decreased, or if our priority became higher + * than the current's. */ - if (task_running(rq, p)) { - if (p->prio > oldprio) - resched_task(rq->curr); - } else if (TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR(p, rq)) + if (TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR(p, rq) || + (delta > 0 && task_running(rq, p))) resched_task(rq->curr); } task_rq_unlock(rq, &flags); @@ -3923,10 +3921,12 @@ void set_user_nice(struct task_struct *p enqueue_task(p, array); inc_raw_weighted_load(rq, p); /* - * If the task increased its priority or is running and - * lowered its priority, then reschedule its CPU: + * Reschedule if we are currently running on this runqueue and + * our priority decreased, or if our priority became higher + * than the current's. */ - if (delta < 0 || (delta > 0 && task_running(rq, p))) + if (TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR(p, rq) || + (delta > 0 && task_running(rq, p))) resched_task(rq->curr); } out_unlock: @@ -4153,13 +4153,11 @@ recheck: __activate_task(p, rq); /* * Reschedule if we are currently running on this runqueue and - * our priority decreased, or if we are not currently running on - * this runqueue and our priority is higher than the current's + * our priority decreased, or our priority became higher + * than the current's. */ - if (task_running(rq, p)) { - if (p->prio > oldprio) - resched_task(rq->curr); - } else if (TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR(p, rq)) + if (TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR(p, rq) || + (task_running(rq, p) && p->prio > oldprio)) resched_task(rq->curr); } __task_rq_unlock(rq); - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
