New Revision: 220198
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/220198
Log:
Clearing the flag when preempting will let the preempted thread run
too much time. This can finish in a scheduler deadlock with ping-pong
between two threads.
One sample of this is:
- device lapic (to have a preemption point on critical_exit())
- options DEVICE_POLLING with HZ>1499 (to have lapic freq = hardclock freq)
- running a cpu intensive task (that does not enter the kernel)
- only one CPU on SMP or no SMP.
As requested by jhb@ 4BSD have received the same type of fix instead of
propagating the flag to the new thread.
