From 495ab9c045e1b0e5c82951b762257fe1c9d81564 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andi Kleen Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2006 13:59:11 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] i386/x86-64/ia64: Move polling flag into thread_info_status During some profiling I noticed that default_idle causes a lot of memory traffic. I think that is caused by the atomic operations to clear/set the polling flag in thread_info. There is actually no reason to make this atomic - only the idle thread does it to itself, other CPUs only read it. So I moved it into ti->status. Converted i386/x86-64/ia64 for now because that was the easiest way to fix ACPI which also manipulates these flags in its idle function.
