_that_ is the root of all ugly in that thing. I still find it utterly insane you can create 'per-cpu' workqueues and then violate the per-cpu property with hotplug and get your work ran on a different CPU. It should be a hard error to use queue_work_on() and then run the work on a different cpu. Yet somehow this isn't so. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
