Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] driver core: replace use of system_unbound_wq with system_dfl_wq
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 15:16:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251114141618.172154-2-marco.crivellari@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251114141618.172154-1-marco.crivellari@suse.com>
Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
This continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which began with
the introduction of new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag in:
commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")
Switch to using system_dfl_wq because system_unbound_wq is going away as part of
a workqueue restructuring.
