Andrew, Tejun, how does this look? static DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct work_struct, lru_add_drain_work); void lru_add_drain_all(void) { static DEFINE_MUTEX(lock); static struct cpumask has_work; int cpu; mutex_lock(&lock); get_online_cpus(); cpumask_clear(&has_work); for_each_online_cpu(cpu) { struct work_struct *work = &per_cpu(lru_add_drain_work, cpu); if (pagevec_count(&per_cpu(lru_add_pvec, cpu)) || pagevec_count(&per_cpu(lru_rotate_pvecs, cpu)) || pagevec_count(&per_cpu(lru_deactivate_pvecs, cpu)) || need_activate_page_drain(cpu)) { INIT_WORK(work, lru_add_drain_per_cpu); schedule_work_on(cpu, work); cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, &has_work); } } for_each_cpu(cpu, &has_work) flush_work(&per_cpu(lru_add_drain_work, cpu)); put_online_cpus(); mutex_unlock(&lock); } -- Chris Metcalf, Tilera Corp. http://www.tilera.com -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
