[PATCH] workqueues: do CPU_UP_CANCELED if CPU_UP_PREPARE fails
|
|
(replaces workqueue-proper-error-unwinding-in-cpu-hotplug-error-path.patch)
The bug was pointed out by Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita [at] gmail>, and this
patch is based on his original patch.
workqueue_cpu_callback(CPU_UP_PREPARE) expects that if it returns NOTIFY_BAD,
_cpu_up() will send CPU_UP_CANCELED then.
However, this is not true since
"cpu hotplug: cpu: deliver CPU_UP_CANCELED only to NOTIFY_OKed callbacks with CPU_UP_PREPARE"
commit: a0d8cdb652d35af9319a9e0fb7134de2a276c636
The callback which has returned NOTIFY_BAD will not receive CPU_UP_CANCELED.
Change the code to fulfil the CPU_UP_CANCELED logic if CPU_UP_PREPARE fails.
