    workqueue: Control intensive warning threshold through cmdline · ccdec921
    Xuewen Yan authored
    When CONFIG_WQ_CPU_INTENSIVE_REPORT is set, the kernel will report
    the work functions which violate the intensive_threshold_us repeatedly.
    And now, only when the violate times exceed 4 and is a power of 2,
    the kernel warning could be triggered.
    
    However, sometimes, even if a long work execution time occurs only once,
    it may cause other work to be delayed for a long time. This may also
    cause some problems sometimes.
    
    In order to freely control the threshold of warninging, a boot argument
    is added so that the user can control the warning threshold to be printed.
    At the same time, keep the exponential backoff to prevent reporting too much.
    
    By default, the warning threshold is 4.
