Hi all,

i am working with __sched __schedule()

and i want to add some thing i want to check whether the prev will become idle or not how can i do this.

thanks in advance

- - Mustafa, After looking around in pick_next_task there is a scheduler class called idle_sched_class for idling when tasks need to be run. Something like /*declare sched_class pointer to idle_sched_class address*/ const struct sched_class *idle=&idle_sched_class; /*Check if the pointer pointing to the idle class is equal to prev's sched_class*/ if(prev->sched_class == idle) After this condition you can just: printk(KERN_INFO "Prev is equal to idle_sched_class,now running the idle sched_class\n"); If you have another question about this please let me known. Cheers, Nick
