Subject: [RFC PATCH 35/86] thread_info: change to tif_need_resched(resched_t)
tif_need_resched() now takes a parameter specifying the resched
type: RESCHED_lazy for when we allow the running task to run to
completion before eventually scheduling at a userspace boundary
and, RESCHED_eager for the next safe preemption point.
need_resched(), which is used by non-core code now checks for
presence of either of the need-resched bits. Also given that
need_resched() (and tif_need_resched() to a lesser extent), is
used extensively in the kernel so it is worth noting the common
uses and how they will change:
- idle: we always want to schedule out of idle whenever there is
any work. So the appropriate check is for both the conditions.
(Currently we use need_resched() most places and the interfaces
defined in sched/idle.h use tif_need_resched().)
However, as discussed in later commits it is critical that
when scheduling out of idle, we always reschedule with
RESCHED_eager (which maps to TIF_NEED_RESCHED.) This suggests
that idle code everywhere should instead just do:
while (!tif_need_resched(RESCHED_eager) { ... }
or similar. That is true, but we have a lot of idle code and it
does not seem to make sense to expose scheduler implementation
details all over.
- uses in conjunction with preempt_count(): we only ever want to
fold or make preemption decisions based on TIF_NEED_RESCHED, not
TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY. So, related logic needs to use
tif_need_resched(RESCHED_eager).
- code that relinquishes resources temporarily (locks, irq, etc)
checks for should_resched() and would preempt if TIF_NEED_RESCHED
were set due to the (preempt_count() == offset) check.
The hand-rolled versions, typically check for need_resched()
which is a wider check.
In either case the final arbiter is preempt_schedule() which
checks via preemptible() does the more narrow check.
Would it make sense to schedule out for both the need-resched
flags?
