Once pick_next_pushable_dl_task(rq) return a task, it guarantees that
the task's cpu is rq->cpu, so task_cpu(next_task) is always rq->cpu if
task == next_task. Remove a redundant condition and make code simpler.

Furthermore, unnecessary one branch and unnecessary two LOAD operations
in 'if' statement can be avoided.

Seems a sensible optimization to me. Actually, we are doing the same for
rt.c; Steve, Peter, do you think we should optimize that as well?

If correct (and I've not spend brain cycles on that) yes. We should keep
this push-pull muck synced between rt and deadline as much as possible.

Are we doing the same for push_rt_task()? I don't see it, and I don't
see it in tip/sched/core either. What I have is:

  if (task_cpu(next_task) == rq->cpu && task == next_task) {

But that said, I believe this patch is correct, and we should change
rt.c as well.


  task = pick_next_pushable_dl_task(rq);

Which has:

  BUG_ON(rq->cpu != task_cpu(task))

when it returns a task other than NULL. Which means that task_cpu(task)
must be rq->cpu. Then if task == next_task, then task_cpu(next_task)
must be rq->cpu as well.

Mind fixing rt.c if it hasn't been fixed already.

Sorry, bad wording on my side. I meant the are currently checking the
same conditions both for DL and for RT, and we should probably optimize
RT as well if we are going to take this patch.

Juri and steven, thank you very much for reviewing it.

I'm not sure and familiar with... Should I add your 'reviewed by' into

No, it's the maintainer's job to add these tags when they take your
patch. If you were to resend the patch because of a minor change
(something a reviewer told you to make but still gave you their
reviewed-by tag), then you could add it. Or if you have a patch series
and resend a new series, you can add the reviewed-by tags to the
patches that were not changed. But if you were to change a patch, then
you need to ask the reviewer to give their tag again, because they need
to review the changes made before their tag should go on it.

Make sense?

I just noticed that you sent a v2 of the patch we reviewed. Since you
didn't change it, you could have added our review-by tags. That makes
it a bit easier for maintainers to know.
