Now I see a reason why it is better #ifdef SMP the code that uses CG_FLAG_*. Also, we should check for tdq_cg != NULL in one more place. See the patch below, instead of exposing CG_FLAG_* for !SMP configs. diff --git a/sys/kern/sched_ule.c b/sys/kern/sched_ule.c index 680572d..fe3a119 100644 --- a/sys/kern/sched_ule.c +++ b/sys/kern/sched_ule.c @@ -891,6 +891,7 @@ tdq_move(struct tdq *from, struct tdq *to) return (1); } +#ifdef SMP /* * This tdq has idled.
