From d942fb6c7d391baba3dddb566eb735fbf3df8528 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2009 17:56:17 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] sched: fix sync wakeups Pawel Dziekonski reported that the openssl benchmark and his quantum chemistry application both show slowdowns due to the scheduler under-parallelizing execution. The reason are pipe wakeups still doing 'sync' wakeups which overrides the normal buddy wakeup logic - even if waker and wakee are loosely coupled. Fix an inversion of logic in the buddy wakeup code.
