Subject: [parisc-linux] small patch for cpu_idle?
Date: Sun, 21 Oct 2001 10:52:27 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011021105227.H537@tausq.org> (raw)
It appears to me that our cpu_idle is not quite right... what do you
guys think about this:
Index: process.c
===================================================================
RCS file: /home/cvs/parisc/linux/arch/parisc/kernel/process.c,v
retrieving revision 1.38
diff -u -r1.38 process.c
--- process.c 2001/10/09 19:43:35 1.38
+++ process.c 2001/10/21 17:46:53
@@ -67,8 +67,8 @@
current->counter = -100;
while (1) {
- while (!current->need_resched) {
- }
+ while (!current->need_resched)
+ continue;
schedule();
check_pgt_cache();
}
otherwise when cpu_idle gets called we might get stuck in an inf loop
(which happens, for example, when fsck requires manual intervention on
startup).
