From c3a2ae3d93c0f10d29c071f599764d00b8de00cb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2009 00:21:23 -0400 Subject: sched: Add new prio to cpupri before removing old prio We need to add the new prio to the cpupri accounting before removing the old prio. This is because removing the old prio first will open a race window where the cpu will be removed from pri_active. In this case the cpu will not be visible for RT push and pulls. This could cause a RT task to not migrate appropriately, and create a very large latency. This bug was found with the use of ftrace sched events and trace_printk.
