[RFD/RFC PATCH 8/8] sched: Fixup task CPUs for potential proxies.

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

 



When a mutex owner with potential proxies wakes up those proxies are
activated as well, on the same CPU of the owner. They might have been
sleeping on a different CPU however.

Fixup potential proxies CPU at wakeup time before activating them (or
they get woken up with a wrong CPU reference).
