Re: preempt_schedule_irq missing from mfinfo[]?

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

 



That'll do it.  My patch wasn't enough.

I added some sanity checks to get_wchan and it hit one while running
overnight.

The task being examined transitioned from !TASK_RUNNING to
TASK_RUNNING while it was being examined. Doh!

Definately not SMP/preempt safe as written today.
