Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] block/blk-throttle: Add WQ_PERCPU to alloc_workqueue users
Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2026 10:29:20 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260223092920.60424-3-marco.crivellari@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260223092920.60424-1-marco.crivellari@suse.com>
This continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which began with
the introduction of new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag in:
commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")
The refactoring is going to alter the default behavior of
alloc_workqueue() to be unbound by default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU. For more details see the Link tag below.
In order to keep alloc_workqueue() behavior identical, explicitly request
WQ_PERCPU.
