From: Tero Kristo <tero.kristo@xxxxxxxxx> Hi, This patch fixes a problem where an interrupt may cause scheduling inside idle loop, but which does not get served due to the decision that has already been done for the system to enter idle. This can cause nasty latencies in some cases. This would not need to be done if interrupts would be disabled inside the idle loop (arch/arm/kernel/process.c @ cpu_idle), but currently this is not the case in ARM kernel. -Tero -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
