Subject: workqueue: add delayed_work->wq to simplify reentrancy handling
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=60c057bca22285efefbba033624763a778f243bf;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

workqueue: add delayed_work->wq to simplify reentrancy handling

To avoid executing the same work item from multiple CPUs concurrently,
a work_struct records the last pool it was on in its ->data so that,
on the next queueing, the pool can be queried to determine whether the
work item is still executing or not.

A delayed_work goes through timer before actually being queued on the
target workqueue and the timer needs to know the target workqueue and
CPU.  This is currently achieved by modifying delayed_work->work.data
such that it points to the cwq which points to the target workqueue
and the last CPU the work item was on.  __queue_delayed_work()
extracts the last CPU from delayed_work->work.data and then combines
it with the target workqueue to create new work.data.

The only thing this rather ugly hack achieves is encoding the target
workqueue into delayed_work->work.data without using a separate field,
which could be a trade off one can make; unfortunately, this entangles
work->data management between regular workqueue and delayed_work code
by setting cwq pointer before the work item is actually queued and
becomes a hindrance for further improvements of work->data handling.

This can be easily made sane by adding a target workqueue field to
delayed_work.  While delayed_work is used widely in the kernel and
this does make it a bit larger (<5%), I think this is the right
trade-off especially given the prospect of much saner handling of
work->data which currently involves quite tricky memory barrier
dancing, and don't expect to see any measureable effect.

Add delayed_work->wq and drop the delayed_work->work.data overloading.

tj: Rewrote the description.
