Subject: [PATCH 009/196] signal: Don't disable preemption in ptrace_stop() on
2024-02-05 17:41:40 +01:00
PREEMPT_RT.
On PREEMPT_RT keeping preemption disabled during the invocation of
cgroup_enter_frozen() is a problem because the function acquires css_set_lock
which is a sleeping lock on PREEMPT_RT and must not be acquired with disabled
preemption.
The preempt-disabled section is only for performance optimisation
reasons and can be avoided.
Extend the comment and don't disable preemption before scheduling on
PREEMPT_RT.
