Unlike most architectures (and only in keeping with powerpc), arm64 has a non __sched() function on the path to our cpu_switch_to() assembly function. It is expected that for a blocked task, in_sched_functions() can be used to skip all functions between the raw context switch assembly and the scheduler functions that call into __switch_to(). This is the behaviour expected by stack_trace_consume_entry_nosched(), and the behaviour we'd like to have such that we an simplify arm64's __get_wchan() implementation to use arch_stack_walk(). This patch mark's arm64's __switch_to as __sched. This *will not* change the behaviour of arm64's current __get_wchan() implementation, which always performs an initial unwind step which skips __switch_to(). This *will* change the behaviour of stack_trace_consume_entry_nosched() and stack_trace_save_tsk() to match their expected behaviour on blocked tasks, skipping all scheduler-internal functions including __switch_to(). Other than the above, there should be no functional change as a result of this patch. Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Madhavan T.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
