- idle task becomes a pseudo task which is never scheduled. It is never put on any run queue and never enters userspace. An entry for this task still remains in the process table for time accounting - Instead of panicing if there is not process to schedule, pick_proc() returns NULL which is a signal to put the cpu in an idle state and set everything in such a way that after receiving and interrupt it looks like idle task was preempted - idle task is set non-preemptible to avoid handling in the timer interrupt code which make userspace scheduling simpler as idle task does not need to be handled as a special case. |
