[PATCH V2] PCI/DOE: Detect on stack work items automatically
From: ira . weiny
Date: Thu Nov 17 2022 - 19:05:36 EST
From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx>
Work item initialization needs to be done with either
INIT_WORK_ONSTACK() or INIT_WORK() depending on how the work item is
allocated.
The callers of pci_doe_submit_task() allocate struct pci_doe_task on the
stack and pci_doe_submit_task() incorrectly used INIT_WORK().
Jonathan suggested creating doe task allocation macros such as
DECLARE_CDAT_DOE_TASK_ONSTACK().[1] The issue with this is the work
function is not known to the callers and must be initialized correctly.
A follow up suggestion was to have an internal 'pci_doe_work' item
allocated by pci_doe_submit_task().[2] This requires an allocation which
could restrict the context where tasks are used.
Another idea was to have an intermediate step to initialize the task
struct with a new call.[3] This added a lot of complexity.
Lukas pointed out that object_is_on_stack() is available to detect this
automatically.
Use object_is_on_stack() to determine the correct init work function to
call.
