[PATCH 07/16] softirq: Fix nohz pending issue for real

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

 



From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

We really need to iterate through all softirqs to find a potentially
blocked runner.

T1 runs softirq X (that cleared pending bit for X)

Interrupt raises softirq Y

T1 gets blocked on a lock and lock owner is not runnable

T1 schedules out

CPU goes idle and complains about pending softirq Y.

Now iterating over all softirqs lets us find the runner for X and
eliminate Y from the to warn about list as well.
