Subject: [PATCH for-v5.15.x 1/2] timers: implement usleep_idle_range()
Date: Sun, 12 Dec 2021 08:28:29 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211212082831.26988-2-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211212082831.26988-1-sj@kernel.org>
commit e4779015fd5d2fb8390c258268addff24d6077c7 upstream.
Patch series "mm/damon: Fix fake /proc/loadavg reports", v3.
This patchset fixes DAMON's fake load report issue. The first patch
makes yet another variant of usleep_range() for this fix, and the second
patch fixes the issue of DAMON by making it using the newly introduced
function.
This patch (of 2):
Some kernel threads such as DAMON could need to repeatedly sleep in
micro seconds level. Because usleep_range() sleeps in uninterruptible
state, however, such threads would make /proc/loadavg reports fake load.
To help such cases, this commit implements a variant of usleep_range()
called usleep_idle_range(). It is same to usleep_range() but sets the
state of the current task as TASK_IDLE while sleeping.
