You can probably use workqueues for this. Looking at the manual page again for the first time in years, I think it's a little misleading -- what I believe is meant by "A work must not be enqueued again until the callback is called..." is really "a work item must not be re-enqueued before it has been processed by the *func callback", not the alternate, crazy reading that would imply workqueues can only have one enqueued item at a time. Your reading of the man page is correct: it is the struct work, not the struct workqueue *, that may not be reused until the callback is run. (I'm not sure how this would help for pgoyette's application, though.)
