sched/core: Introduce set_next_task() helper for better code readability When we pick the next task, we will do the following for the task: 1) p->se.exec_start = rq_clock_task(rq); 2) dequeue_pushable(_dl)_task(rq, p); When we call set_curr_task(), we also need to do the same thing above. In rt.c, the code at 1) is in the _pick_next_task_rt() and the code at 2) is in the pick_next_task_rt(). If we put two operations in one function, maybe better. So, we introduce a new function set_next_task(), which is responsible for doing the above. By introducing the function we can get rid of calling the dequeue_pushable(_dl)_task() directly(We can call set_next_task()) in pick_next_task() and have better code readability and reuse. In set_curr_task_rt(), we also can call set_next_task(). Do this things such that we end up with: static struct task_struct *pick_next_task(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev, struct rq_flags *rf) { /* do something else ... */ put_prev_task(rq, prev); /* pick next task p */ set_next_task(rq, p); /* do something else ... */ } put_prev_task() can match set_next_task(), which can make the code more readable.
