From 88ec2789d856056344161aa20420dd37e893b0fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Tue, 21 Aug 2012 15:05:14 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] task_work: add a scheduling point in task_work_run() It seems commit 4a9d4b02 (switch fput to task_work_add) reintroduced the problem addressed in commit 944be0b2 (close_files(): add scheduling point) If a server process with a lot of files (say 2 million tcp sockets) is killed, we can spend a lot of time in task_work_run() and trigger a soft lockup.
