[PATCH V2 1/2] Tick: Introduce tick_nohz_check() to check nohz enable status

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In some cases, nohz enable status needs to be checked. E.G, in RCU and cpufreq
ondemand governor. So add tick_nohz_check() to return tick_nohz_enabled value
And use tick_nohz_check() instead of referencing tick_nohz_enabled in the rcutree_plugin.h.

Change since V2:
	Add ACCESS_ONCE to tick_nohz_check().
