kthread: make __kthread_queue_delayed_work static

2019-10-16T16:20:58Z

The __kthread_queue_delayed_work is not exported so make it static, to avoid the following sparse warning: kernel/kthread.c:869:6: warning: symbol '__kthread_queue_delayed_work' was not declared. Should it be static? Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

include/: refactor headers to allow kthread.h inclusion in psi_types.h

2019-05-15T02:52:48Z

kthread.h can't be included in psi_types.h because it creates a circular inclusion with kthread.h eventually including psi_types.h and complaining on kthread structures not being defined because they are defined further in the kthread.h. Resolve this by removing psi_types.h inclusion from the headers included from kthread.h.

mm: replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE

2019-03-06T05:07:14Z

Patch series "Replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE", v3. All these places for replacement were found by running the following grep patterns on the entire kernel code. Please let me know if this might have missed some instances. This might also have replaced some false positives. I will appreciate suggestions, inputs and review. 1. git grep "nid == -1" 2. git grep "node == -1" 3. git grep "nid = -1" 4. git grep "node = -1" This patch (of 2): At present there are multiple places where invalid node number is encoded as -1. Even though implicitly understood it is always better to have macros in there. Replace these open encodings for an invalid node number with the global macro NUMA_NO_NODE. This helps remove NUMA related assumptions like 'invalid node' from various places redirecting them to a common definition.

kthread: Do not use TIMER_IRQSAFE

2019-02-28T10:18:38Z

The TIMER_IRQSAFE usage was introduced in commit 22597dc3d97b1 ("kthread: initial support for delayed kthread work") which modelled the delayed kthread code after workqueue's code. The workqueue code requires the flag TIMER_IRQSAFE for synchronisation purpose. This is not true for kthread's delay timer since all operations occur under a lock. Remove TIMER_IRQSAFE from the timer initialisation and use timer_setup() for initialisation purpose which is the official function.

kthread: Convert worker lock to raw spinlock

2019-02-28T10:18:38Z

In order to enable the queuing of kthread work items from hardirq context even when PREEMPT_RT_FULL is enabled, convert the worker spin_lock to a raw_spin_lock. This is only acceptable to do because the work performed under the lock is well-bounded and minimal.

kthread: Add __kthread_should_park()

2019-02-10T20:51:39Z

kthread_should_park() is used to check if the calling kthread ('current') should park, but there is no function to check whether an arbitrary kthread should be parked. The latter is required to plug a CPU hotplug race vs. a parking ksoftirqd thread. The new __kthread_should_park() receives a task_struct as parameter to check if the corresponding kernel thread should be parked. Call __kthread_should_park() from kthread_should_park() to avoid code duplication. Signed-off-by: Matthias Kaehlcke Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: "Paul E .
