This is not needed anmore. kthread_run guarantees that the newly creates thread is run before returning to the caller. > +/* wait queue for master sync daemon */ > +static DECLARE_WAIT_QUEUE_HEAD(sync_master_wait); I don't think you need this one either. You can use wake_up_process on the task_struct pointer instead. > spin_lock(&ip_vs_sync_lock); > list_add_tail(&sb->list, &ip_vs_sync_queue); > + if (++ip_vs_sync_count == 10) > + wake_up_interruptible(&sync_master_wait); > spin_unlock(&ip_vs_sync_lock); > } > -static int sync_thread(void *startup) > +static int sync_thread(void *data) Btw, it might make sense to remove sync_thread and just call the master and backup threads directly. > +void __init ip_vs_sync_init(void) > +{ > + /* set up multicast address */ > + mcast_addr.sin_family = AF_INET; > + mcast_addr.sin_port = htons(IP_VS_SYNC_PORT); > + mcast_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(IP_VS_SYNC_GROUP); > } Why can't this be initialized at compile time by: static struct sockaddr_in mcast_addr = { .sin_family = AF_INET, .sin_port = htons(IP_VS_SYNC_PORT), .sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(IP_VS_SYNC_GROUP), } (the hton* might need __constant_hton* also I'm not sure without trying) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
