Subject: [Question] one question about 'current' in scheduler_tick()
Date: Mon, 17 Oct 2005 16:05:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43535B35.5020603@ccoss.com.cn> (raw)

Hi, All.

    I found scheduler_tick() use current macro to get task_struct of 
current task.
   
    I seen scheduler_tick() is called every timer interrupt at most 
time. In this
case, I think scheduler_tick() is in interrupt context (enter kernel by 
interrupt),
So I have a hunch that there have not thread_info which it need in 
kernel stack. But
It seem it can work perfectly.
 
    I can not understand this. Would any expert like explain clearly for 
it ?

    Thanks in advanced.
