workqueue: apply __WQ_ORDERED to create_singlethread_workqueue()

2014-09-12T20:13:08Z

create_singlethread_workqueue() is a compat interface for single threaded workqueue which maps to ordered workqueue w/ rescuer in the current implementation. create_singlethread_workqueue() currently implemented by invoking alloc_workqueue() w/ appropriate parameters. 8719dceae2f9 ("workqueue: reject adjusting max_active or applying attrs to ordered workqueues") introduced __WQ_ORDERED to protect ordered workqueues against dynamic attribute changes which can break ordering guarantees but forgot to apply it to create_singlethread_workqueue(). This in itself is okay as nobody currently uses dynamic attribute change on workqueues created with create_singlethread_workqueue(). However, 4c16bd327c ("workqueue: implement NUMA affinity for unbound workqueues") broke singlethreaded guarantee for ordered workqueues through allocating a separate pool_workqueue on each NUMA node by default. A later change 8a2b75384444 ("workqueue: fix ordered workqueues in NUMA setups") fixed it by allocating only one global pool_workqueue if __WQ_ORDERED is set. Combined, the __WQ_ORDERED omission in create_singlethread_workqueue() became critical breaking its single threadedness and ordering guarantee. Let's make create_singlethread_workqueue() wrap alloc_ordered_workqueue() instead so that it inherits __WQ_ORDERED and can implicitly track future ordered_workqueue changes. v2: I missed that __WQ_ORDERED now protects against pwq splitting across NUMA nodes and incorrectly described the patch as a nice-to-have fix to protect against future dynamic attribute usages. Oleg pointed out that this is actually a critical breakage due to 8a2b75384444 ("workqueue: fix ordered workqueues in NUMA setups").

workqueue: remove unused work_clear_pending()

2014-05-22T15:35:51Z

In 8930caba3dbd ("workqueue: disable irq while manipulating PENDING"), setting last CPU and clearing PENDING got merged into a single operation (set_work_cpu_and_clear_pending()), which resulted that the internal routine work_clear_pending() is not used any more. tj: Minor description tweak.

workqueue: remove unused WORK_CPU_END

2014-05-22T15:35:51Z

WORK_CPU_END is totally unused since 4e8b22bd1a37 ("workqueue: fix pool ID allocation leakage and remove BUILD_BUG_ON() in init_workqueues"). It should be removed. After it is removed, the comment "special cpu IDs" is not precise due to there is only one special CPU ID (WORK_CPU_UNBOUND) left, so we also change this comment to the description for WORK_CPU_UNBOUND. tj: Minor description and comment tweaks.

workqueue: declare system_highpri_wq

2014-05-22T15:35:50Z

system_highpri_wq is exported to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(), but it was forgotten to be declared in workqueue.h. So we add the declaration and a short description for it. tj: Minor comment tweak. Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

Pull timer changes from Thomas Gleixner: "This assorted collection provides: - A new timer based timer broadcast feature for systems which do not provide a global accessible timer device.

Tejun Heo has made WQ_NON_REENTRANT useless in the dbf2576e37 ("workqueue: make all workqueues non-reentrant"). So remove its usages and definition.

workqueue: Provide destroy_delayed_work_on_stack()

2014-03-25T16:33:42Z

If a delayed or deferrable work is on stack we need to tell debug objects that we are destroying the timer and the work. Otherwise we leak the tracking object.
