From: Darren Hart Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2011 21:04:33 +0000 (-0800) Subject: sched: Allow SCHED_BATCH to preempt SCHED_IDLE tasks X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a2f5c9ab79f78e8b91ac993e0543d65b661dd19b;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git sched: Allow SCHED_BATCH to preempt SCHED_IDLE tasks Perform the test for SCHED_IDLE before testing for SCHED_BATCH (and ensure idle tasks don't preempt idle tasks) so the non-interactive, but still important, SCHED_BATCH tasks will run in favor of the very low priority SCHED_IDLE tasks.
