Each psi group requires a dedicated kthread_delayed_work and kthread_worker. Since no other work can be performed using psi_group's kthread_worker, the same result can be obtained using a task_struct and a timer directly. This makes psi triggering simpler by removing lists and locks involved with kthread_worker usage and eliminates the need for poll_scheduled atomic use in the hot path.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
