[PATCH 4/7] cifs: use workqueue instead of slow-work

Tejun Heo tj at kernel.org
Tue Jul 20 13:34:59 PDT 2010


Workqueue can now handle high concurrency.  Use system_nrt_wq
instead of slow-work.

* Updated is_valid_oplock_break() to not call cifs_oplock_break_put()
  as advised by Steve French.  It might cause deadlock.  Instead,
  reference is increased after queueing succeeded and
  cifs_oplock_break() briefly grabs GlobalSMBSeslock before putting
  the cfile to make sure it doesn't put before the matching get is
  finished.

* Anton Blanchard reported that cifs conversion was using now gone
  system_single_wq.  Use system_nrt_wq which provides non-reentrance
  guarantee which is enough and much better.
