From fd37b884003c7e46a0337b6e9212326d3ee1f40d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2023 12:11:57 -0600 Subject: io_uring/io-wq: don't clear PF_IO_WORKER on exit A recent commit gated the core dumping task exit logic on current->flags remaining consistent in terms of PF_{IO,USER}_WORKER at task exit time. This exposed a problem with the io-wq handling of that, which explicitly clears PF_IO_WORKER before calling do_exit(). The reasons for this manual clear of PF_IO_WORKER is historical, where io-wq used to potentially trigger a sleep on exit. As the io-wq thread is exiting, it should not participate any further accounting. But these days we don't need to rely on current->flags anymore, so we can safely remove the PF_IO_WORKER clearing.
