From 1cae13e75b7a7848c03138636d4eb8d8a5054dd5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2014 13:31:50 -0400 Subject: percpu_ref: make INIT_ATOMIC and switch_to_atomic() sticky Currently, a percpu_ref which is initialized with PERPCU_REF_INIT_ATOMIC or switched to atomic mode via switch_to_atomic() automatically reverts to percpu mode on the first percpu_ref_reinit(). This makes the atomic mode difficult to use for cases where a percpu_ref is used as a persistent on/off switch which may be cycled multiple times. This patch makes such atomic state sticky so that it survives through kill/reinit cycles. After this patch, atomic state is cleared only by an explicit percpu_ref_switch_to_percpu() call.
