[PATCH] Cell SPU task notification

From: Maynard Johnson
Date: Fri Jan 12 2007 - 17:03:31 EST



Subject: Enable SPU switch notification to detect currently active SPU tasks.

From: Maynard Johnson <maynardj@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds to the capability of spu_switch_event_register so that the
caller is also notified of currently active SPU tasks. It also exports
spu_switch_event_register and spu_switch_event_unregister.

Signed-off-by: Maynard Johnson <mpjohn@xxxxxxxxxx>
