True? I dont think it is true. The definition of TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR() is unchanged with these patches. Also group priority is linked to the highest priority task it has. As a result, the high-priority group-a task should preempt the low priority group-b task. This is unless group-a has currently run out of its bandwidth and is sitting in the expired queue (which is something that the TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR() can be optimized to check for). -- Regards, vatsa - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
