Subject: [PATCH RFC 4/8] Set WQ_SYSFS on key NFS-related workqueues
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 14:22:00 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831-performance-v1-4-8d9fd9b67f96@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260831-performance-v1-0-8d9fd9b67f96@kernel.org>

WQ_SYSFS exposes settable workqueue attributes under
/sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/. For NFS workloads, this is useful
for tuning affinity scope at runtime without reloading modules.
