Re: ipvs_syncmaster brings cpu to 100%

Yes, the information in that thread is the same as what Luca said. It's
a load average problem, not a CPU utilisation problem (those threads are
sleeping!) If Luca could test the msleep_interruptible() version of the
patch and it works (like I said, performance should not change, but the
load average will drop to by 2), then I will ACK the patch for mainline
acceptance.

	Agreed. It seems your initial conversion was based on wrong
assumptions, quoting you:

Description: Use ssleep() instead of schedule_timeout() to guarantee the task
delays as expected. The first two replacements use TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE but do
not
check for signals, so ssleep() should be appropriate.

	As all signals are blocked from daemonize and even explicitly
later it was not necessary to convert to non-interruptible variant.
