[linux-pm] [PATCH -mm 0/2]: SMP-safe freezer

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

 



Hi,

The following two patches are designed to make the task freezer SMP-safe.

The first patch is a controversial one, as Pavel doesn't like it, but I have
no other idea how the freezing of stopped tasks could be handled to avoid
the problems that it has now.  I did my best to explain everything in the
changelog.

The second patch is basically needed to make the freezer avoid races with
other tasks when modifying the other tasks' flags.

Greetings,
Rafael
