X-Git-Tag: v3.16-rc1~30^2~23 X-Git-Url: https://openfabrics.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c84a1e32ee58fc1cc9d3fd42619b917cce67e30a;p=~emulex%2Finfiniband.git Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip into next Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main scheduling related changes in this cycle were: - various sched/numa updates, for better performance - tree wide cleanup of open coded nice levels - nohz fix related to rq->nr_running use - cpuidle changes and continued consolidation to improve the kernel/sched/idle.c high level idle scheduling logic. As part of this effort I pulled cpuidle driver changes from Rafael as well. - standardized idle polling amongst architectures - continued work on preparing better power/energy aware scheduling - sched/rt updates - misc fixlets and cleanups" * 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (49 commits) sched/numa: Decay ->wakee_flips instead of zeroing sched/numa: Update migrate_improves/degrades_locality() sched/numa: Allow task switch if load imbalance improves sched/rt: Fix 'struct sched_dl_entity' and dl_task_time() comments, to match the current upstream code sched: Consolidate open coded implementations of nice level frobbing into nice_to_rlimit() and rlimit_to_nice() sched: Initialize rq->age_stamp on processor start sched, nohz: Change rq->nr_running to always use wrappers sched: Fix the rq->next_balance logic in rebalance_domains() and idle_balance() sched: Use clamp() and clamp_val() to make sys_nice() more readable sched: Do not zero sg->cpumask and sg->sgp->power in build_sched_groups() sched/numa: Fix initialization of sched_domain_topology for NUMA sched: Call select_idle_sibling() when not affine_sd sched: Simplify return logic in sched_read_attr() sched: Simplify return logic in sched_copy_attr() sched: Fix exec_start/task_hot on migrated tasks arm64: Remove TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG metag: Remove TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG sched/idle: Make cpuidle_idle_call() void sched/idle: Reflow cpuidle_idle_call() sched/idle: Delay clearing the polling bit ... --- c84a1e32ee58fc1cc9d3fd42619b917cce67e30a diff --cc kernel/locking/locktorture.c index dbafeac18e4,23343be46e9..0955b885d0d --- a/kernel/locking/locktorture.c +++ b/kernel/locking/locktorture.c @@@ -216,11 -216,10 +216,11 @@@ static int lock_torture_writer(void *ar static DEFINE_TORTURE_RANDOM(rand); VERBOSE_TOROUT_STRING("lock_torture_writer task started"); - set_user_nice(current, 19); + set_user_nice(current, MAX_NICE); do { - schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1); + if ((torture_random(&rand) & 0xfffff) == 0) + schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1); cur_ops->writelock(); if (WARN_ON_ONCE(lock_is_write_held)) lwsp->n_write_lock_fail++;
