Anyway, I can probably talk a little bit without disclosing the secretz. Primarily the goal is to be able to easily queue up the work. Packing more into the eb struct gives a nice compact /thing/ which I can put into a list for later execution. Now, the deferred execution has it's own pitfalls, and I'd prefer not to get too far into that since I think these cleanups are decent on their own. > > -- > Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre -- Ben Widawsky, Intel Open Source Technology Center
