Hash Suite for Android: free password hash cracker in your pocket
[<prev] [next>] [thread-next>] [day] [month] [year] [list]
Date:   Wed, 23 Feb 2022 08:27:54 +0100
From:   Christoph Hellwig <hch@....de>
To:     axboe@...nel.dk
Cc:     linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org
Subject: [PATCH] task_work: simplify the task_work_add() interface

Provide a low-level task_work_add_nonotify interface that just adds
the work to the list and open code the TWA_SIGNAL and TWA_NONE callers
using it.  task_work_add() itself now only handles the common TWA_RESUME
case and can drop the notify argument.
