"pool->nr_workers == 1", it is the last worker of the pool, so I add this check. I will remove it. > >> @@ -3589,6 +3587,7 @@ static void put_unbound_pool(struct worker_pool *pool) >> mutex_lock(&pool->manager_mutex); >> spin_lock_irq(&pool->lock); >> >> + WARN_ON(pool->nr_workers != pool->nr_idle); > > Does this condition detect anything new from the condition below? It is already ensured that all workers are idle since pool->ref==0 and manager_arb is held. This additional WARN_ON() does double check. It tells the reviewers that destroying all workers on idle_list equals to destroying all workers of the pool.
