Hi,
Recently I met a problem on different scheduler behavior between

The application works as a proxy, it listen on an interface,
connect through another interface. This application works on a box
with two Xeon cpu, each of them is hyper-threading.

This patch renames the raw hard_irq_{enable,disable} into
__hard_irq_{enable,disable} and introduces a higher level
hard_irq_disable() function that can be used by any code
to enforce that IRQs are fully disabled, not only lazy
disabled.
The difference with the __ versions is that it will update
Some architectures, like powerpc, implement lazy disabling of
interrupts. That means that on those, local_irq_disable() doesn't
actually disable interrupts on the CPU, but only sets some per
CPU flag which cause them to be disabled only if an interrupt actually
occurs.
However, in some cases,
Add a call to hard_irq_disable() to stop_machine so that we make sure

Hello,
This patch fixes a rarely-happened but severe scheduling problem of
the recent m32r kernel of 2.6.17-rc3 or later.
In the following previous m32r patch, the switch_to macro was
modified not to do unnecessary push/pop operations for tuning.

Hi Andrew,
I guess it's the expected behavior for default_do_nmi on x86_64 : there is a new

It applies at the end of the 2.6.21-mm2 patch series.
