From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Tue, 7 Sep 2010 15:34:50 +0000 (+0200) Subject: perf: Provide a separate task context for swevents X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=89a1e18731959e9953fae15ddc1a983eb15a4f19;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git perf: Provide a separate task context for swevents Since software events are always schedulable, mixing them up with hardware events (who are not) can lead to funny scheduling oddities. Giving them their own context solves this.
