Thye shouldn't have been, since users of this don't usually use the flags directly? If they _are_ needed, then we probably need to do something different? My patch only backported "regular" and "ordered" workqueue, not the other flags, and I suspect the other flags can't actually be backported. > +#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE <= KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,36) > +#define WQ_HIGHPRI 0 > +#define WQ_MEM_RECLAIM 0 > #endif Ah, here.

Now that I did, I can tell you that this must be static LIST_HEAD(wq_name_list); to get the list properly initialised. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe backports" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
