2008-11-24sched: convert struct cpupri_vec cpumask_var_t.Rusty Russell1-11/+28
Impact: stack usage reduction, (future) size reduction for large NR_CPUS. Dynamically allocating cpumasks (when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK) saves space for small nr_cpu_ids but big CONFIG_NR_CPUS. The fact cpupro_init is called both before and after the slab is available makes for an ugly parameter unfortunately. We also use cpumask_any_and to get rid of a temporary in cpupri_find.

2008-06-06sched: use a 2-d bitmap for searching lowest-pri CPUGregory Haskins1-0/+174
The current code use a linear algorithm which causes scaling issues on larger SMP machines. This patch replaces that algorithm with a 2-dimensional bitmap to reduce latencies in the wake-up path.
