Instead of the above; how about something like: /* 64-bit doesn't need locks to atomically read a 64bit value */ > +#ifdef CONFIG_64BIT > + if (!add_delta) > + return p->se.sum_exec_runtime; > +#endif > + > rq = task_rq_lock(p, &flags); > ns = p->se.sum_exec_runtime; > if (add_delta) > -- > 1.7.1 > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
