From 0574ea421b90e0e45a72c447dd3c2c79ffd8c153 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Thu, 7 May 2009 14:20:28 -0400 Subject: ring-buffer: only periodically call cond_resched to ring-buffer-benchmark Calling cond_resched at every iteration of the loop adds a bit of overhead to the benchmark. This patch does two things. 1) only calls cond-resched when CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled 2) only calls cond-resched after so many traces has been performed. [ Impact: less overhead to the ring-buffer-benchmark ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt --- kernel/trace/ring_buffer_benchmark.c | 11 +++++++++-- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'kernel') diff --git a/kernel/trace/ring_buffer_benchmark.c b/kernel/trace/ring_buffer_benchmark.c index f4ceb453c7d..a7c048bb446 100644 --- a/kernel/trace/ring_buffer_benchmark.c +++ b/kernel/trace/ring_buffer_benchmark.c @@ -218,16 +218,23 @@ static void ring_buffer_producer(void) } do_gettimeofday(&end_tv); - if (consumer && !(++cnt % wakeup_interval)) + cnt++; + if (consumer && !(cnt % wakeup_interval)) wake_up_process(consumer); +#ifndef CONFIG_PREEMPT /* * If we are a non preempt kernel, the 10 second run will * stop everything while it runs.
