Ok that's of course very unlikely but could it be possible to have the following: CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2 ----- //Wake up A ttwu_queue(TASK A, CPU 1) idle_loop { ttwu_queue_pending { .... raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(rq) # VMEXIT (with IPI still pending) //task A migrates here wait_event(....) //sleep //Wake up A ttwu_queue(TASK A, CPU 2) { //IPI on CPU 2 ignored // due to csd->flags == CSD_LOCK
