From a80712b9cc7e57830260ec5e1feb9cdb59e1da2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Fri, 27 Oct 2023 16:40:49 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] rcu/tasks-trace: Handle new PF_IDLE semantics The commit: cff9b2332ab7 ("kernel/sched: Modify initial boot task idle setup") has changed the semantics of what is to be considered an idle task in such a way that the idle task of an offline CPU may not carry the PF_IDLE flag anymore. However RCU-tasks-trace tests the opposite assertion, still assuming that idle tasks carry the PF_IDLE flag during their whole lifecycle. Remove this assumption to avoid spurious warnings but keep the initial test verifying that the idle task is the current task on any offline CPU.
