Subject: [PATCH 3/5] rcu,nohz: run vtime_user_enter/exit only when state == IN_USER
Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2015 15:27:52 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1423600074-2907-4-git-send-email-riel@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1423600074-2907-1-git-send-email-riel@redhat.com>

From: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com>

Only run vtime_user_enter, vtime_user_exit, and the user enter & exit
trace points when we are entering or exiting user state, respectively.

The KVM code in guest_enter and guest_exit already take care of calling
vtime_guest_enter and vtime_guest_exit, respectively.

The RCU code only distinguishes between "idle" and "not idle or kernel".
There should be no need to add an additional (unused) state there.
