Subject: [PATCH] sched/wait: Fix add_wait_queue() behavioral change

The following cleanup commit:
|
|
|
|
50816c48997a ("sched/wait: Standardize internal naming of wait-queue entries")
|
|
|
|
... unintentionally changed the behavior of add_wait_queue() from
|
|
inserting the wait entry at the head of the wait queue to the tail
|
|
of the wait queue.
|
|
|
|
Beyond a negative performance impact this change in behavior
|
|
theoretically also breaks wait queues which mix exclusive and
|
|
non-exclusive waiters, as non-exclusive waiters will not be
|
|
woken up if they are queued behind enough exclusive waiters.
