Subject: [PATCH v4] sched/rt : Reduce push_rt_task() retries
Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2018 03:39:02 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1539632342-4339-1-git-send-email-peng.hao2@zte.com.cn> (raw)
Improve push_rt_task() by propagating the double_lock_balance()
usage from find_lock_lowest_rq(), thereby reducing the number
of cases where we have to assume rq->lock was dropped.
When CONFIG_PREEMPT=n, Unnecessary retries frequently happens
in a simple test case:
Four different rt priority tasks are restricted to run on two
cpus.
Thanks for Steven Rostedt's advice.
