From 7086721f9c8b59331e164e534f588e075cfd9d3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Layton Date: Thu, 7 Feb 2008 16:34:54 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] SUNRPC: have svc_recv() check kthread_should_stop() When using kthreads that call into svc_recv, we want to make sure that they do not block there for a long time when we're trying to take down the kthread. This patch changes svc_recv() to check kthread_should_stop() at the same places that it checks to see if it's signalled(). Also check just before svc_recv() tries to schedule(). By making sure that we check it just after setting the task state we can avoid having to use any locking or signalling to ensure it doesn't block for a long time. There's still a chance of a 500ms sleep if alloc_page() fails, but that should be a rare occurrence and isn't a terribly long time in the context of a kthread being taken down.
