At this point we still have a timer tick every second. So just change the way the checking occurs that it can be done during the once per second tick for now? If the tick idle period is expanded later maybe only run the watchdog activity during those inevitable ticks? It may be best if the watchdog could be configured as to which processors it should run on? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
