Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 3/3] softirq: defer softirq processing to ksoftirqd if
CPU is busy with RT
From: Pavankumar Kondeti <pkondeti@...eaurora.org>
Defer the softirq processing to ksoftirqd if a RT task is
running or queued on the current CPU. This complements the RT
task placement algorithm which tries to find a CPU that is not
currently busy with softirqs.
Currently NET_TX, NET_RX, BLOCK and IRQ_POLL softirqs are only
deferred as they can potentially run for long time.
Additionally, this patch stubs out ksoftirqd_running() logic,
in the CONFIG_RT_SOFTIRQ_OPTIMIZATION case, as deferring
potentially long-running softirqs will cause the logic to not
process shorter-running softirqs immediately. By stubbing it out
the potentially long running softirqs are deferred, but the
shorter running ones can still run immediately.
This patch includes folded-in fixes by:
