Subject[PATCH]CPU hotplug breaks wake_up_new_task
FromShaohua Li <>
DateTue, 31 May 2005 15:35:09 +0800
Hi,
There is a race condition at wake_up_new_task at CPU hotplug case.
Say do_fork
        copy_process (which sets new forked task's current cpu, cpu_allowed)
                <-------- the new forked task's current cpu is offline
        wake_up_new_task
wake_up_new_task will put the forked task into a dead cpu.
Thanks,
Shaohua
