Re: [patch] voluntary-preempt-2.6.8.1-P0

doh - i think i found a brown-paperbag bug.

could you change this code in kernel/sched.c:

 int __sched voluntary_resched(void)
 {
 #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP
         __might_sleep(__FILE__, __LINE__);
 #endif
         if (kernel_preemption || !voluntary_preemption)
                 return 0;

to:

 int __sched voluntary_resched(void)
 {
 #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP
         __might_sleep(__FILE__, __LINE__);
 #endif
         if (!voluntary_preemption)
                 return 0;

Does the mlockall xrun still occur?
