From c714a534d85576af21b06be605ca55cb2fb887ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Mon, 12 May 2008 13:34:13 -0700 Subject: Make 'cond_resched()' nullification depend on PREEMPT_BKL Because it's not correct with a non-preemptable BKL and just causes PREEMPT kernels to have longer latencies than non-PREEMPT ones (which is obviously not the point of it at all). Of course, that config option actually got removed as an option earlier, so for now this basically disables it entirely, but if BKL preemption is ever resurrected it will be a meaningful optimization. And in the meantime, it at least documents the intent of the code, while not doing the wrong thing.
