From 889ff0150661512d79484219612b7e2e024b6c07 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Sat, 9 Jan 2010 20:04:47 +0100 Subject: perf/core: Split context's event group list into pinned and non-pinned lists Split-up struct perf_event_context::group_list into pinned_groups and flexible_groups (non-pinned). This first appears to be useless as it duplicates various loops around the group list handlings. But it scales better in the fast-path in perf_sched_in(). We don't anymore iterate twice through the entire list to separate pinned and non-pinned scheduling. Instead we interate through two distinct lists. The another desired effect is that it makes easier to define distinct scheduling rules on both. Changes in v2: - Respectively rename pinned_grp_list and volatile_grp_list into pinned_groups and flexible_groups as per Ingo suggestion. - Various cleanups Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- include/linux/perf_event.h | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'include/linux/perf_event.h') diff --git a/include/linux/perf_event.h b/include/linux/perf_event.h index 9a1d276db754..cdbc2aa64a0b 100644 --- a/include/linux/perf_event.h +++ b/include/linux/perf_event.h @@ -683,7 +683,8 @@ struct perf_event_context { */ struct mutex mutex; - struct list_head group_list; + struct list_head pinned_groups; + struct list_head flexible_groups; struct list_head event_list; int nr_events; int nr_active; -- cgit v1.2.1
