Re: Work queue questions

[Deepawali Verma]

Hi Tejun,

May be I misunderstood, I read in the documentation about max_active.
In this case, max_active is 1, but I created three workqueues, do you
mean to say for this case, single thread can process three requests
queued up in the three different workqueues.

Sorry, if I misunderstood.

Regards,
Deepa
