From c1e16aa2792a129d8920e22210ef21eb62a0f80a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2007 20:12:19 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] Fix posix-cpu-timer breakage caused by stale p->last_ran value Problem description at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8048 Commit b18ec80396834497933d77b81ec0918519f4e2a7 [PATCH] sched: improve migration accuracy optimized the scheduler time calculations, but broke posix-cpu-timers. The problem is that the p->last_ran value is not updated after a context switch. So a subsequent call to current_sched_time() calculates with a stale p->last_ran value, i.e. accounts the full time, which the task was scheduled away.
