[PATCH v4 23/24] dept: Let it work with real sleeps in __schedule()

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

 



Dept commits the staged wait in __schedule() even if the corresponding
wake_up() has already woken up the task. Which means Dept considers the
case as a sleep. This would help Dept work for stronger detection but
also leads false positives.

It'd be better to let Dept work only with real sleeps conservatively for
now. So did it.
