From f3a7e1a9c464a32ee186ab91388313c82e7ce018 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kirill Tkhai Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2014 20:35:56 +0400 Subject: [PATCH] sched/dl: Fix preemption checks 1) switched_to_dl() check is wrong. We reschedule only if rq->curr is deadline task, and we do not reschedule if it's a lower priority task. But we must always preempt a task of other classes. 2) dl_task_timer(): Policy does not change in case of priority inheritance. rt_mutex_setprio() changes prio, while policy remains old. So we lose some balancing logic in dl_task_timer() and switched_to_dl() when we check policy instead of priority. Boosted task may be rq->curr. (I didn't change switched_from_dl() because no check is necessary there at all). I've looked at this place(switched_to_dl) several times and even fixed this function, but found just now... I suppose some performance tests may work better after this.
