Subject: [patch 12/27] set TASK_RUNNING in cond_resched()
Date: Thu, 04 Jul 2002 16:54:26 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D24E032.F0793112@zip.com.au> (raw)



do_select() does set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) then calls
__pollwait() which calls __get_free_page() and the cond_resched() which
I added to the pagecache reclaim code never returns.

The patch makes cond_resched() more useful by setting current->state to
TASK_RUNNING before scheduling.
