workqueue: Add debugobjects support

2009-11-15T16:09:48+00:00

Add debugobject support to track the life time of work_structs. While at it, remove duplicate definition of INIT_DELAYED_WORK_ON_STACK(). Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

workqueue: add 'flush_delayed_work()' to run and wait for delayed work

2009-10-14T16:16:42+00:00

It basically turns a delayed work into an immediate work, and then waits for it to finish.

Change "useing" -> "using".

workqueues: introduce __cancel_delayed_work()

2009-09-05T18:30:42+00:00

cancel_delayed_work() has to use del_timer_sync() to guarantee the timer function is not running after return. But most users doesn't actually need this, and del_timer_sync() has problems: it is not useable from interrupt, and it depends on every lock which could be taken from irq. Introduce __cancel_delayed_work() which calls del_timer() instead. The immediate reason for this patch is http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13757 but hopefully this helper makes sense anyway. As for 13757 bug, actually we need requeue_delayed_work(), but its semantics are not yet clear. Merge this patch early to resolves cross-tree interdependencies between input and infiniband.

workqueue: add to_delayed_work() helper function

2009-04-03T02:04:50+00:00

It is a fairly common operation to have a pointer to a work and to need a pointer to the delayed work it is contained in. In particular, all delayed works which want to rearm themselves will have to do that. So it would seem fair to offer a helper function for this operation.

debugobjects: add and use INIT_WORK_ON_STACK

2009-01-22T09:02:07+00:00

Impact: Fix debugobjects warning debugobject enabled kernels spit out a warning in hpet code due to a workqueue which is initialized on stack. Add INIT_WORK_ON_STACK() which calls init_timer_on_stack() and use it in hpet. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner
