KTHREAD_WORKER_FN(9) Driver Basics KTHREAD_WORKER_FN(9)
NAME
kthread_worker_fn - kthread function to process kthread_worker
SYNOPSIS
int kthread_worker_fn(void * worker_ptr);
ARGUMENTS
worker_ptr
pointer to initialized kthread_worker
DESCRIPTION
This function can be used as threadfn to kthread_create or kthread_run
with worker_ptr argument pointing to an initialized kthread_worker. The
started kthread will process work_list until the it is stopped with
kthread_stop. A kthread can also call this function directly after
extra initialization.
Different kthreads can be used for the same kthread_worker as long as
there's only one kthread attached to it at any given time. A
kthread_worker without an attached kthread simply collects queued
kthread_works.
