UPSTREAM: dm verity: stop using WQ_UNBOUND for verify_wq Setting WQ_UNBOUND increases scheduler latency on ARM64. This is likely due to the asymmetric architecture of ARM64 processors. I've been unable to reproduce the results that claim WQ_UNBOUND gives a performance boost on x86-64. This flag is causing performance issues for multiple subsystems within Android. Notably, the same slowdown exists for decompression with EROFS. | open-prebuilt-camera | WQ_UNBOUND | ~WQ_UNBOUND | |-----------------------|------------|---------------| | verity wait time (us) | 11746 | 119 (-98%) | | erofs wait time (us) | 357805 | 174205 (-51%) | | sha256 ramdisk random read | WQ_UNBOUND | ~WQ_UNBOUND | |----------------------------|-----------=---|-------------| | arm64 (accelerated) | bw=42.4MiB/s | bw=212MiB/s | | arm64 (generic) | bw=16.5MiB/s | bw=48MiB/s | | x86_64 (generic) | bw=233MiB/s | bw=230MiB/s | Using a alloc_workqueue() @max_active arg of num_online_cpus() only made sense with WQ_UNBOUND. Switch the @max_active arg to 0 (aka default, which is 256 per-cpu). Also, eliminate 'wq_flags' since it really doesn't serve a purpose.

BEST: Make all of your changes to upstream Linux. If appropriate, backport to the stable releases. These patches will be merged automatically in the corresponding common kernels. If the patch is already in upstream Linux, post a backport of the patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()
require an in-tree modular driver that uses the symbol -- so include the new driver or changes to an existing driver in the same patchset as the export.LESS GOOD: Develop your patches out-of-tree (from an upstream Linux point-of-view). Unless these are fixing an Android-specific bug, these are very unlikely to be accepted unless they have been coordinated with kernel-team@android.com. If you want to proceed, post a patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
