[PATCH 6.6 208/208] task_work: make TWA_NMI_CURRENT handling conditional on IRQ_WORK

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

 



6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit cec6937dd1aae1b38d147bd190cb895d06cf96d0 upstream.

The TWA_NMI_CURRENT handling very much depends on IRQ_WORK, but that
isn't universally enabled everywhere.

Maybe the IRQ_WORK infrastructure should just be unconditional - x86
ends up indirectly enabling it through unconditionally enabling
PERF_EVENTS, for example.  But it also gets enabled by having SMP
support, or even if you just have PRINTK enabled.

But in the meantime TWA_NMI_CURRENT causes tons of build failures on
various odd minimal configs.  Which did show up in linux-next, but
despite that nobody bothered to fix it or even inform me until -rc1 was
out.

Fixes: 466e4d801cd4 ("task_work: Add TWA_NMI_CURRENT as an additional notify mode")
