From 00b89fe0197f0c55a045775c11553c0cdb7082fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Valentin Schneider Date: Mon, 10 May 2021 16:10:23 +0100 Subject: sched: Make the idle task quack like a per-CPU kthread For all intents and purposes, the idle task is a per-CPU kthread. It isn't created via the same route as other pcpu kthreads however, and as a result it is missing a few bells and whistles: it fails kthread_is_per_cpu() and it doesn't have PF_NO_SETAFFINITY set. Fix the former by giving the idle task a kthread struct along with the KTHREAD_IS_PER_CPU flag. This requires some extra iffery as init_idle() call be called more than once on the same idle task.
