Subject: [PATCH v3 -rcu] workqueue: Convert for_each_wq to use built-in list check

list_for_each_entry_rcu now has support to check for RCU reader sections
as well as lock. Just use the support in it, instead of explicitly
checking in the caller.

Can't you also get rid of this macro?

It's used in one place:

static struct pool_workqueue *unbound_pwq_by_node(struct workqueue_struct *wq,
int node)
{
assert_rcu_or_wq_mutex_or_pool_mutex(wq);

/*
* XXX: @node can be NUMA_NO_NODE if CPU goes offline while a
* delayed item is pending. The plan is to keep CPU -> NODE
* mapping valid and stable across CPU on/offlines. Once that
* happens, this workaround can be removed.
*/
if (unlikely(node == NUMA_NO_NODE))
return wq->dfl_pwq;

return rcu_dereference_raw(wq->numa_pwq_tbl[node]);
}

Shouldn't we delete that assert and use

+ return rcu_dereference_check(wq->numa_pwq_tbl[node],
+ lockdep_is_held(&wq->mutex) ||
+ lockdep_is_held(&wq_pool_mutex));

Could be. But that should be a different patch. I am only cleaning up the RCU
list lockdep checking in this series since the series introduces that
concept). Please feel free to send a patch for the same.

Arguably, keeping the macro around also can be beneficial in the future.

Makes sense. This API also does sparse checking. Also hopefully no sparse
issues show up because rcu_dereference_check() but anyone such issues should
be fixed as well.

thanks,

Pulled into -rcu for testing and further review, thank you!

Thanx, Paul
