Subject: how tasklet_kill() worked?
Date: Sat, 06 Jul 2019 18:10:08 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <616e2214e58f450baff4b1511cb19645bd751a07.camel@163.com> (raw)
Dear mentors,
After tired digging, I'm wholly stuck in tasklet_kill(). Hope your help.
From the source tree (4.9.168), I got:
1. TASKLET_STATE_SCHED flag is only set by tasklet_schedule(). (also in
dccp_tasklet_schedule()).
2. tasklet_schedule() immediately put the tasklet to queue tasklet_vec.
3. softirq handler tasklet_action() run the queue and clear their SCHED
flag.
4. Unlike tasklet_kill_immediate, tasklet_kill() doesn't touch tasklet_vec.
5. tasklet_kill() just yield to waiting the tasklet complete and clear its
SCHED flag.
Then how to say the tasklet been killed? If a tasklet SCHED flag been set,
it must be in tasklet_vec queue. At this time, tasklet_kill does not kick it
out of the queue but waiting it to run over. Is my understanding right or I
miss something?
Thanks,
laokz
