There are a few operations that are offloaded to the worker threads. In this case, we lose process context and end up in kthread context. This results in ios to be not accounted to the issuing cgroup and consequently end up as issued by root. Just like others, adopt the personality of the blkcg too when issuing via the workqueues. For the SQPOLL thread, it will live and attach in the inited cgroup's context. Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou <dennis@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
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.
