Hi again,
The last time I asked about this, Marc-Christian Petersen pointed me
to <http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=103885818416173&w=2>
which was a backport of the 2.5.51 workqueue (to 2.4.20 I guess),
by Christoph Hellwig.
Turns out it was missing a few minor glue pieces, which I was able to
easily add. It also didn't test for a cpu's online-ness before creating
a queue for it; this caused problems somewhere (I forget).
Here is that backport with the glue added. Next I will send a relative
diff which incorporates updates as of 2.5.74.
I'm looking for any comments on the goodness of the patch. I'm not
looking for it to be included in any 2.4 kernel, as there are no 2.4
users of it. But I have a local fork which backports the 2.5
NFS ... which does use the workqueue. So I'm looking for expert
opinion on whether it looks problematic. The real meat is in the
next patch, this one doesn't touch existing code in a significant way.
Thanks,
/fc
