Hi,
I booted 2.6.23-rc8 and noticed that ehea loves its workqueues:
# ps aux|grep ehea
root 3266 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_driver_wq/]
root 3268 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_driver_wq/]
root 3269 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_driver_wq/]
root 3270 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_driver_wq/]
root 3271 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_driver_wq/]
root 3272 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_driver_wq/]
root 3273 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_driver_wq/]
root 3274 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_driver_wq/]
root 3275 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_wq/0]
root 3276 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_wq/1]
root 3278 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_wq/2]
root 3279 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_wq/3]
root 3280 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_wq/4]
root 3281 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_wq/5]
root 3282 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_wq/6]
root 3283 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 11:02 0:00 [ehea_wq/7]
(notice also that the ehea_driver_wq/XXX exceeds TASK_COMM_LEN).
Since they are both infrequent events and not performance critical
(memory hotplug and driver reset), can we just use schedule_work?
