[PATCH 1/3] sched/wait: use freezable_schedule when possible

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

 



Replace schedule(); try_to_freeze() by freezable_schedule().

Tasks calling freezable_schedule() set the PF_FREEZER_SKIP flag
before calling schedule(). Unlike tasks calling schedule();
try_to_freeze() tasks calling freezable_schedule() are not awaken by
try_to_freeze_tasks(). Instead they call try_to_freeze() when they
wake up if the freeze is still underway.

It is not a problem since sleeping tasks can't do anything which isn't
allowed for a frozen task while sleeping.

The result is a potential performance gain during freeze, since less
tasks have to be awaken.
