Current try_to_grab_pending() activates the inactive item and subsequently treats it as though it were a standard activated item. This approach prevents duplicating handling logic for both active and inactive items, yet the premature activation of an inactive item triggers trace_workqueue_activate_work(), yielding an unintended user space visible side effect. And the unnecessary increment of the nr_active, which is not a simple counter now, followed by a counteracted decrement, is inefficient and complicates the code. Just remove the nr_active manipulation code in grabbing inactive items. Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan <jiangshan.ljs@antgroup.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
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 reStructuredText 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.
