Revision 58fc73d10f3e92bfcd1e9a8391eb3e49b68df8e5 authored by Christoph Hellwig on 26 August 2011, 16:25:38 UTC, committed by Nicholas Bellinger on 16 September 2011, 09:50:09 UTC
Problem: Changed from wake_up_interruptible -> wake_up_process and wait_event_interruptible-> schedule_timeout_interruptible broke the FCoE target. Earlier approach of wake_up_interruptible was also looking at 'queue_cnt' which is not necessary, because it increment of 'queue_cnt' with wake_up_inetrriptible / waker_up_process introduces race condition. Fix: Instead of fixing the code which used wake_up_process and remove 'queue_cnt', using work_queue based approach is cleaner and acheives same result. As well, work queue based approach has less programming overhead and OS manages threads which processes work queues. This patch is developed by Christoph Hellwig and reviwed+validated by Kiran Patil.
