[PATCH 2/3] work_on_cpu: Use our own workqueue.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Impact: remove potential clashes with generic kevent workqueue

Annoyingly, some places we want to use work_on_cpu are already in
workqueues.  As per Ingo's suggestion, we create a different workqueue
for work_on_cpu.
