[PATCH 3/6] rcu,nohz: run vtime_user_enter/exit only when state == IN_USER

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

 



From: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxx>

Only run vtime_user_enter, vtime_user_exit, and the user enter & exit
trace points when we are entering or exiting user state, respectively.

The RCU code only distinguishes between "idle" and "not idle or kernel".
There should be no need to add an additional (unused) state there.
