* Unless work items are expected to consume a huge amount of CPU
cycles, using a bound wq is usually beneficial due to the increased
level of locality in wq operations and work item execution.
+
+
+7. Debugging
+
+Because the work functions are executed by generic worker threads
+there are a few tricks needed to shed some light on misbehaving
+workqueue users.
+
+Worker threads show up in the process list as:
+
+root 5671 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S 12:07 0:00 [kworker/0:1]
+root 5672 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S 12:07 0:00 [kworker/1:2]

+root 5674 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S 12:13 0:00 [kworker/1:0]
+
+If kworkers are going crazy (using too much cpu), there are two types
+of possible problems:
+
+ 1. Something beeing scheduled in rapid succession
+ 2. A single work item that consumes lots of cpu cycles
+
+The first one can be tracked using tracing:
+
+ $ echo workqueue:workqueue_queue_work > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_event
+ $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe > out.txt
+ (wait a few secs)
+ ^C
+
+If something is busy looping on work queueing, it would be dominating
+the output and the offender can be determined with the work item
+function.
+
+For the second type of problems it should be possible to just check
+the stack trace of the offending worker thread.
+
+ $ cat /proc/THE_OFFENDING_KWORKER/stack
+
+The work item's function should be trivially visible in the stack
+trace.
