I think you mean drivers/char/ipmi/* here. I believe that work queues items are execute single-threaded for a work queue, so this should be good. I need to test this, though. It may be that an IPMI device can have its own work queue; it may not be important to run it in bh context. -corey > > Based on the work done by Tejun Heo <t...@kernel.org> > Branch: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git for-6.10 > > Signed-off-by: Allen Pais <allen.l...@gmail.com> > --- > drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c | 30 ++++++++++++++--------------- > 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c > b/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c > index b0eedc4595b3..fce2a2dbdc82 100644 > --- a/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c > +++ b/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c > @@ -36,12 +36,13 @@ > #include <linux/nospec.h> > #include <linux/vmalloc.h> > #include <linux/delay.h> > +#include <linux/workqueue.h> > > #define IPMI_DRIVER_VERSION "39.2" > > static struct ipmi_recv_msg *ipmi_alloc_recv_msg(void); > static int ipmi_init_msghandler(void); > -static void smi_recv_tasklet(struct tasklet_struct *t); > +static void smi_recv_work(struct work_struct *t); > static void handle_new_recv_msgs(struct ipmi_smi *intf); > static void need_waiter(struct ipmi_smi *intf); > static int handle_one_recv_msg(struct ipmi_smi *intf, > @@ -498,13 +499,13 @@ struct ipmi_smi { > /* > * Messages queued for delivery.
