From 4866cde064afbb6c2a488c265e696879de616daa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Piggin Date: Sat, 25 Jun 2005 14:57:23 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] sched: cleanup context switch locking Instead of requiring architecture code to interact with the scheduler's locking implementation, provide a couple of defines that can be used by the architecture to request runqueue unlocked context switches, and ask for interrupts to be enabled over the context switch. Also replaces the "switch_lock" used by these architectures with an oncpu flag (note, not a potentially slow bitflag). This eliminates one bus locked memory operation when context switching, and simplifies the task_running function.
