SubjectRe: [Cbe-oss-dev] [PATCH -- RFC]Add notification for active Cell SPU tasks -- update #2
The attached patch adds notification of already-active SPU tasks to 
SPUFS. However, there's a bug that I'm having trouble finding. The
first execution of this code path works fine, but subsequent runs do not
work properly. On subsequent runs, I can see that not all of the
already-active tasks are getting awakened, so my OProfile driver is not
able to collect samples for those SPU contexts that were not awakened.
If anyone can see the error in my logic or if you have any other
comments on this patch, I would appreciate it.

Thanks.

Maynard
Subject: Enable SPU switch notification to detect currently active SPU tasks.

From: Maynard Johnson <maynardj@us.ibm.com>

This patch adds to the capability of spu_switch_event_register to notify the
caller of currently active SPU tasks. It also exports spu_switch_event_register
and spu_switch_event_unregister.

Signed-off-by: Maynard Johnson <mpjohn@us.ibm.com>
