Re: [PATCH -V2] acpi: don't cond_resched if irq is disabled

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

 



Hi Xiaotian,

I think, this is another round of "armor vs. bullet" race... It will hold until
might_sleep() logic changes again.

Please consider using preemptible() -- IMHO this is the check we should perform 
in our case of voluntary preemption.

Regards,
Alex.
