Hi Linus, Please pull these tasklets updates for v5.9-rc1. These are the infrastructure updates needed to support converting the tasklet API to something more modern (and hopefully for removal further down the road). There is a 300-patch series waiting in the wings to get set out to subsystem maintainers, but these changes need to be present in the kernel first. Since this has some treewide changes, I carried this series for -next instead of paining Thomas with it in -tip, but it's got his Ack. This is similar to the timer_struct modernization from a while back, but not nearly as messy (I hope). :)
Thanks! -Kees The following changes since commit 11ba468877bb23f28956a35e896356252d63c983: Linux 5.8-rc5 (2020-07-12 16:34:50 -0700) are available in the Git repository at: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux.git tags/tasklets-v5.9-rc1 for you to fetch changes up to 12cc923f1ccc1df467e046b02a72c2b3b321b6a2: tasklet: Introduce new initialization API (2020-07-30 11:16:01 -0700) ---------------------------------------------------------------- tasklets API update for v5.9-rc1 - Prepare for tasklet API modernization (Romain Perier, Allen Pais, Kees Cook) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Kees Cook (2): usb: gadget: udc: Avoid tasklet passing a global treewide: Replace DECLARE_TASKLET() with DECLARE_TASKLET_OLD() Romain Perier (1): tasklet: Introduce new initialization API drivers/input/keyboard/omap-keypad.c | 2 +- drivers/input/serio/hil_mlc.c | 2 +- drivers/net/wan/farsync.c | 4 ++-- drivers/s390/crypto/ap_bus.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/most/dim2/dim2.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/octeon/ethernet-tx.c | 2 +- drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c | 2 +- drivers/usb/gadget/udc/snps_udc_core.c | 6 ++--- drivers/usb/host/fhci-sched.c | 2 +- include/linux/interrupt.h | 41 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- kernel/backtracetest.c | 2 +- kernel/debug/debug_core.c | 2 +- kernel/irq/resend.c | 2 +- kernel/softirq.c | 18 ++++++++++++++- net/atm/pppoatm.c | 2 +- net/iucv/iucv.c | 2 +- sound/drivers/pcsp/pcsp_lib.c | 2 +- 17 files changed, 70 insertions(+), 25 deletions(-) -- Kees Cook
