Subject: [RFC PATCH(Experimental) 1/4] freezer-cpu-hotplug core
This patch implements process_freezer based cpu-hotplug
core.
The sailent features are:
o No more (un)lock_cpu_hotplug.
o No more CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE and CPU_LOCK_RELEASE. Hence no per-subsystem
hotcpu mutexes.
o Calls freeze_process/thaw_processes at the beginning/end of
the hotplug operation.
o Splits CPU_DEAD into two events namely
- CPU_DEAD: which will be handled while the processes are still
frozen.
- CPU_DEAD_KILL_THREADS: To be handled after we thaw_processes.
This split is required because stopping of the per-cpu threads
using kthread_stop cannot be done while the system is in the frozen
state. Hence we need subsystems which have created per-cpu threads
have to stop them once thaw_processes have been called.
o Handles CPU_DEAD and CPU_DEAD_KILL_THREADS for subsystems which
create per-cpu threads.
Points to ponder:
o Can calling CPU_DOWN_PREPARE/CPU_UP_PREPARE in the
frozen context create any dirty dependencies in the future?
o Can the SYSTEM_RUNNING hack in _cpu_up be avoided by some cleaner means.
