Subject: [PATCH 03/16] sched/fair: Disregard idle task wakee_flips in wake_wide
Date: Mon, 23 May 2016 11:58:45 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1464001138-25063-4-git-send-email-morten.rasmussen@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1464001138-25063-1-git-send-email-morten.rasmussen@arm.com>
wake_wide() is based on task wakee_flips of the waker and the wakee to
decide whether an affine wakeup is desirable. On lightly loaded systems
the waker is frequently the idle task (pid=0) which can accumulate a lot
of wakee_flips in that scenario. It makes little sense to prevent affine
wakeups on an idle cpu due to the idle task wakee_flips, so it makes
more sense to ignore them in wake_wide().
