From ad4b78bbcbab66998b05d422ac6106b645796e54 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2009 12:31:31 +0200 Subject: sched: Add new wakeup preemption mode: WAKEUP_RUNNING Create a new wakeup preemption mode, preempt towards tasks that run shorter on avg. It sets next buddy to be sure we actually run the task we preempted for.
