[PATCH 1/2] block: export task_work_add()

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

 



The loop driver wants to synchronously perform autoclear operation, for
some userspace programs (e.g. xfstest) depend on that the autoclear
operation already completes by the moment lo_release() from close()
returns to userspace and immediately call umount() of a partition
containing a backing file which the autoclear operation will close().

Export task_work_add() so that the loop driver can perform autoclear
operation by the moment lo_release() from close() returns to userspace.
