[PATCH 18/19] workqueue: reimplement workqueue freeze using cwq->frozen_works queue
From: Tejun Heo
Date: Thu Oct 01 2009 - 04:10:56 EST
Currently, workqueue freezing is implemented by marking the worker
freezeable and calling try_to_freeze() from dispatch loop.
Reimplement it so that the workqueue is frozen instead of the worker.
* cwq->cur_worklist and cwq->frozen_works are added. During normal
operation cwq->cur_worklist points to cwq->worklist.
* When freezing starts, cwq->cur_worklist is switched to
cwq->frozen_works so that new works are stored in cwq->frozen_works
instead of being processed.
* Freezing is complete when cwq->nr_in_flight equals the number of
works on cwq->frozen_works for all cwqs of all freezeable
workqueues.
* Thawing is done by restoring cwq->cur_worklist to cwq->worklist and
splicing cwq->frozen_works to cwq->worklist.
This new implementation allows having multiple shared workers per cpu.
