Subject: [PATCH] rt/workqueue: fix an early crash and some warnings
Date: Sun, 14 Dec 2008 00:50:28 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49444A44.3030206@gmail.com> (raw)

Impact: fix early crash and build warnings

While building the broken/rt/workqueue topic, I got various warnings:

kernel/workqueue.c: In function ‘delayed_work_timer_fn’:
kernel/workqueue.c:214: attention : passing argument 3 of ‘__queue_work’ makes integer from pointer without a cast

This one is the cause of an early crash: the adress of the priority is passed instead of its
value, hence the following BUG_ON() triggering on sched.c:rt_mutex_setprio()

BUG_ON(prio < 0 || prio > MAX_PRIO)

Various warnings are displayed because of confusion between common linked-list and priority
sorted linked-list:

kernel/workqueue.c: In function ‘flush_work’:
kernel/workqueue.c:527: attention : passing argument 1 of ‘list_empty’ from incompatible pointer type
kernel/workqueue.c:535: attention : assignment from incompatible pointer type
kernel/workqueue.c:539: attention : assignment from incompatible pointer type

This patch fixes them (hopefully correctly).

broken/rt/workqueue boots correctly now.
