[PATCH 17/21] workqueue: simple reimplementation of SINGLE_THREAD workqueue
|
|
SINGLE_THREAD workqueues are used to reduce the number of worker
threads and ease synchronization. The first reason will be irrelevant
with concurrency managed workqueue implementation. Simplify
SINGLE_THREAD implementation by creating the workqueues the same but
making the worker grab mutex before actually executing works on the
workqueue. In the long run, most SINGLE_THREAD workqueues will be
replaced with generic ones.
