workqueue: Initialize wq_isolated_cpumask in workqueue_init_early()

2025-06-17T18:58:29Z

Now when isolcpus is enabled via the cmdline, wq_isolated_cpumask does not include these isolated CPUs, even wq_unbound_cpumask has already excluded them. It is only when we successfully configure an isolate cpuset partition that wq_isolated_cpumask gets overwritten by workqueue_unbound_exclude_cpumask(), including both the cmdline-specified isolated CPUs and the isolated CPUs within the cpuset partitions. Fix this issue by initializing wq_isolated_cpumask properly in workqueue_init_early().

workqueue: Better document teardown for delayed_work

2025-04-14T17:48:23Z

destroy_workqueue() does not ensure that non-pending work submitted with queue_delayed_work() gets cancelled. The caller has to ensure that manually. Add this information about delayed_work in destroy_workqueue()'s docstring. Add a TODO for destroy_workqueue() to wait for all delayed_work. Signed-off-by: Philipp Stanner Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo
