Re: [PATCH] possible scheduler deadlock in 2.6.16

 
Hi Nick,

You're right. I can't think of a better fix, although we've been trying
to avoid adding cpu to the runqueue structure.

I was going to suggest moving more work into wake_sleeping_dependent
instead, but cores with 4 and more threads now make that less desirable
I suppose.

My thoughts too. I wasnt sure if davem is planning to use the sibling
code for his niagara work, but locking us down to 2 siblings sounds like
a bad idea.
