Yes, this change is harmless. I'm reworking (ie. rewriting) stop_machine at the moment to simplify it, and as a side effect it won't be yielding. (The yield is almost useless, since there's nothing at same priority as this thread anyway). I've included this patch for my next push to Linus. Thanks, Rusty. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
