Subject[driver-core PATCH v3 0/5] Add NUMA aware async_schedule calls
From
Date
This patch set provides functionality that will help to improve the
locality of the async_schedule calls used to provide deferred
initialization.

This patch set originally started out with me focused on just the one call
to async_schedule_domain in the nvdimm tree that was being used to
defer the device_add call however after doing some digging I realized the
scope of this was much broader than I had originally planned. As such I
went through and reworked the underlying infrastructure down to replacing
the queue_work call itself with a function of my own and opted to try and
provide a NUMA aware solution that would work for a broader audience.

Ideally this solution should be agnostic enough that it can be used for any
given device type. So ideally we shouldn't need to implement one-off
solutions for each bus as has already kind of happened in the PCI tree with
pci_call_probe.

RFC->v1:
Dropped nvdimm patch to submit later.
It relies on code in libnvdimm development tree.
Simplified queue_work_near to just convert node into a CPU.
Split up drivers core and PM core patches.
v1->v2:
Renamed queue_work_near to queue_work_node
Added WARN_ON_ONCE if we use queue_work_node with per-cpu workqueue
v2->v3:
Added Acked-by for queue_work_node patch
Continued rename from _near to _node for consistency with queue_work_node
Renamed async_schedule_near_domain to async_schedule_node_domain
Renamed async_schedule_near to async_schedule_node
Added kerneldoc for new async_schedule_XXX functions
Added nvdimm boot time improvement data to description of patch 4

Alexander Duyck (5):
workqueue: Provide queue_work_node to queue work near a given NUMA node
async: Add support for queueing on specific NUMA node
driver core: Probe devices asynchronously instead of the driver
driver core: Attach devices on CPU local to device node
PM core: Use new async_schedule_dev command
