[PATCH 3.10 119/139] workqueue: implicit ordered attribute should be overridable

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

 



From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0a94efb5acbb6980d7c9ab604372d93cd507e4d8 upstream.

5c0338c68706 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be
ordered") automatically enabled ordered attribute for unbound
workqueues w/ max_active == 1.  Because ordered workqueues reject
max_active and some attribute changes, this implicit ordered mode
broke cases where the user creates an unbound workqueue w/ max_active
== 1 and later explicitly changes the related attributes.

This patch distinguishes explicit and implicit ordered setting and
overrides from attribute changes if implict.
