Subject: do_wait() wakeup optimization: child_wait_callback: check __WNOTHREAD case
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b4fe51823d797d6959b2eee7868023e61606daa9;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

do_wait() wakeup optimization: child_wait_callback: check __WNOTHREAD case

Suggested by Roland.

do_wait(__WNOTHREAD) can only succeed if the caller is either ptracer, or
it is ->real_parent and the child is not traced. IOW, caller == p->parent
otherwise we should not wake up.

Change child_wait_callback() to check this. Ratan reports the workload with
CPU load >99% caused by unnecessary wakeups, should be fixed by this patch.
