| |
setup_new_dl_entity() takes two parameters, but it only actually uses one of them, under a different name, to setup a new dl_entity, after:
2f9f3fdc928 "sched/deadline: Remove dl_new from struct sched_dl_entity"
as we currently do
setup_new_dl_entity(&p->dl, &p->dl)
However, before Luca's change we were doing
setup_new_dl_entity(dl_se, pi_se)
in update_dl_entity() for a dl_se->new entity: we were using pi_se's parameters (the potential PI donor) for setting up a new entity.
Restore this behaviour (as we want to correctly initialize parameters of a boosted task that enters DEADLINE) by removing the useless second parameter of setup_new_dl_entity() and retrieving the top waiter directly from inside that function.

--- Changes from v2: - optimize by calling rt_mutex_get_top_task only if the task is boosted (as suggested by Steve)
Changes from v1: - Steve pointed out that we were actually using the second parameter to permorm initialization - Luca confirmed that behavior is slightly changed w.r.t. before his change - changelog updated and original behavior restored --- kernel/sched/deadline.c | 16 +++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
