Date: Tue, 02 Oct 2012 00:52:30 +0200 From: Willy Tarreau <w@....eu> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, stable@...r.kernel.org Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@....de>, Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@...llo.nl>, Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>, Willy Tarreau <w@....eu> Subject: [ 033/180] sched: Fix signed unsigned comparison in check_preempt_tick() 2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mike Galbraith <efault@....de> commit d7d8294415f0ce4254827d4a2a5ee88b00be52a8 upstream. Signed unsigned comparison may lead to superfluous resched if leftmost is right of the current task, wasting a few cycles, and inadvertently _lengthening_ the current task's slice.
