Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net/sock: Propagate WF_SYNC only when requested
Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2026 07:09:43 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260714013940.4068189-6-srikar@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260714013940.4068189-4-srikar@linux.ibm.com>

Use SOCK_SYNC_WAKEUP to select between synchronous and asynchronous wakeup
wakeup APIs. This avoids propagating WF_SYNC when no blocking waiter is
expected. All wakeup locations in networking code that currently issue
synchronous poll-style wakeups unconditionally are updated.
