[PATCH 1/5] sched-cleanup_task_activated.patch

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The activated flag in task_struct is used to track different sleep types
and its usage is somewhat obfuscated. Convert the variable to an enum with
more descriptive names without altering the function.
