Subject: [PATCH] IPMI: Set schedule_timeout_wait value back to one
Date: Wed, 16 Jun 2010 08:51:44 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100616135144.GA7548@minyard.local> (raw)
From: Martin Wilck <martin.wilck@ts.fujitsu.com>
Some systems were seeing CPU usage go up dramatically with the recent
changes to try to reduce timer usage in the IPMI driver. This was
traced down to schedule_timeout_interruptible(1) being changed to
schedule_timeout_interruptbile(0). Revert that change.
