Here is the latest ioctl #21 kernel patch;
it (1) actually works, unlike the last one, which only waited until
the to-do list was emptied at the beginning of the cleaning function,
which wasn't actually helpful
and (2) provides framework for adding facility for user-space waiting
for anything else deferred, with "deferred iputs" penciled in as the
next thing to allow waiting for -- which probably currently suffers
from a similar problem with the to-do list getting emptied before the
work is done -- but which is out of the scope of the sponsor's
requirements. Another pair of atomics might be required to make that
work right too. I don't know if waiting for deferred iputs is holding
anyone or anything back.
Going forward, I imagine ioctl #21, with it's flags field, to be the
ioctl that newly deferred and backgrounded activities use to allow
waiting for their completion. This means that any move to background
something would include extending the BICW_TEST macro to include
testing for completion of the deferred activity, adjusting the maximum
flag value in strict mode, and adding more wakeup calls around the
code that handles the new deferred thing.
A flags field of 0xFFFA should always mean "wait for completion of
everything you know how to wait for."
