2010-12-08lib: Make workqueue more conservative about ramping upPaul Jakma
* workqueue.c: (work_queue_run) Err more on the side of keeping granularity down, by being more conservative about increasing it. Also, fix mispelling.
2009-06-02[bgp] Fix crash on SIGHUP, deref of freed workqueuesSteve Hill
* lib/workqueue.c: free-ing workqueues had never been tested obviously, queue's thread was not being stopped * bgpd/bgpd.c: null out freed workqueues, to prevent acting on freed workqueues
2008-06-02+ initial edition of meta-queue for RIB updates processing (bug #431)Denis Ovsienko
2007-11-12+ fixed bug #418 (changing address on an existing interface doesn't cause ↵Denis Ovsienko
existing static routes to be revalidated)
2006-03-30[lib] Trivial: fix line lengths of a comment in workqueu.cPaul Jakma
2006-03-30 Paul Jakma <paul.jakma@sun.com> * workqueue.c: (work_queue_run) fix line length of comment
2006-02-02[lib/workqueue] remove the useless 'delay' factor.paul
2006-02-02 Paul Jakma <paul.jakma@sun.com> * workqueue.h: (struct work_queue) Remove the delay field. It served no purpose and just introduced bad behaviour. Should be excised before its allowed to escape into 1.0. This removes need for the 'flood' and runs_since_clear fields. * workqueue.c: (general) excise delay factor between queue runs, hence the 'flood' crap too.. See above. * bgp_route.c: (bgp_{clear_node,process}_queue_init) delay field is removed from workqueue spec.
2005-11-14[workqueue] Update workqueue users callbacks to additional argumentspaul
2005-11-14 Paul Jakma <paul.jakma@sun.com> * (general) pass struct work-queue to callback functions. * workqueue.h: (struct work_queue) move the state flag variables to end. Add an opaque pointer to spec, for user-data global to the queue. Pass reference to work_queue to all callbacks. * workqueue.c: (work_queue_item_remove) pass ref to workqueue to user callbacks. (work_queue_run) ditto.

* (general) Add state to detect queue floods. There's no sense trying to be sparing of CPU resources, if the queue is flooding and using ever more memory resources. we should just get on with clearing the queue. The sense of delay and hold were wrong way around, fix. * workqueue.h: (struct work_queue) Add status bitfield. Add 'flood' integer to workqueue spec. Add runs_since_clear counter to workqueue. * workqueue.c: (work_queue_new) set defaults for delay, hold and flood. (work_queue_add) initial schedule should use delay, not hold. (show_work_queues) Print flood field, conserve whitespace. (work_queue_unplug) use delay, not hold. (work_queue_run) consecutive runs should be seperated by hold time, not delay. Keep track of number of consecutive runs, go into 'overdrive' if queue is being flooded, we can't avoid making heavy use of resources, better to use CPU than ever more RAM.

* workqueue.h: Add a WQ_QUEUE_BLOCKED item_status return code, to allow a queue function to indicate the queue is not ready/blocked - rather than any problem with the item at hand. Add a notion of being able to 'plug' and 'unplug' a queue. Add helpers to plug/unplug a queue. Add a completion callback, to be called when a queue is emptied. * workqueue.c: (work_queue_new) remove useless list_free. (work_queue_schedule) new internal helper function to schedule queue, if appropriate. (work_queue_add) use work_queue_schedule (show_work_queues) Print 'P' if queue is plugged. (work_queue_plug) new API function, plug a queue - ie prevent it from 'drained' / processed / scheduled. (work_queue_unplug) unplug a queue, allowing it to be drained / scheduled / processed again. (work_queue_run) Add support for WQ_QUEUE_BLOCKED. Add comment for RETRY_NOW case. Make hysteris more aggresive in ramping up granularity, improves performance significantly. Add support for calling completion callback when queue is emptied, possibly useful for knowing when to unplug a queue.

* workqueue.c (show_work_queues): Remove unused gettimeofday call.

* workqueue.h: (struct work_queue_item) change retry_count to ran, its a count of number item has been run. * workqueue.c: (show_work_queues) Fix formating of slightly bugfix: fix SIGFPE if wq->runs is 0. (work_queue_run) retry logic was slightly wrong. cycles.best is 0 initialy, granularity is 1, so update best if cycles >= granularity, not just >.

* workqueue.{c,h}: Helper API for setting up and running queues via background threads. * command.c: install the 'show workqueues' command * memtypes.c: Add work queue mtypes, and a rib-queue type for a zebra rib work queue. * memtypes.h: Updated to match memtypes.c * Makefile.am: Add new workqueue files to build.
