Right, but this allows to make schedule_xxx/flush_scheduled_work inline and kill more EXPORT_SYMBOL's, and cmwq exports it anyway (iirc it also renames it). > > The suspend block api cannot be built as a module, but if > > schedule_suspend_blocking_work will just call > > queue_suspend_blocking_work(keventd_wq, work) it may as well be an > > inline function which would require the export. > > I think it would be better to keep the thing inside the kernel, at > least for now. But then schedule_suspend_blocking_work() in turn needs EXPORT_SYMBOL(). OK. Let's forget this patch. We can unify schedule_suspend_blocking_work and queue_suspend_blocking_work later, or Arve can add this export into his patch (without EXPORT_SYMBOL) - either way I agree. This is very minor issue, I regret I originated this almost offtopic noise ;) Oleg. _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
