From 2a705ad65c9c393df1a684c780f890a29aab1128 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Fri, 11 Apr 2014 09:59:17 +0200 Subject: sched/idle, alpha: Switch from TS_POLLING to TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Standardize the idle polling indicator to TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG such that both TIF_NEED_RESCHED and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG are in the same word. This will allow us, using fetch_or(), to both set NEED_RESCHED and check for POLLING_NRFLAG in a single operation and avoid pointless wakeups. Changing from the non-atomic thread_info::status flags to the atomic thread_info::flags shouldn't be a big issue since most polling state changes were followed/preceded by a full memory barrier anyway.
