PROBE::WORKQUEUE.CREATE(3stap)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so welcome to probe::workqueue.create from the Interrupt Request (IRQ) Tapset — yes bestie, you're in the 3stap manual and we're talking about creating a new workqueue 💖 this is the probe that fires the literal moment a brand new workqueue gets born.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

probe workqueue.create {}

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no args, no flags, she just goes 💅

---

🦋 VALUES 🦋

these are the lil' goodies you get to peek at inside the probe handler, and no cap, both of them are useful:

• cpu — the cpu for which the worker thread is being created 🧚 like, which CPU's whole deal this worker thread belongs to.
• wq_thread — the task_struct of the workqueue thread 👑 the actual task struct, fr fr, the real one.

lowkey important: these are the only two values listed here, so don't go looking for more. cpu = which cpu the worker thread is created for, wq_thread = the task_struct of the workqueue thread. that's the whole menu, bestie 🎀

---

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

• tapset::irq(3stap) — go read the irq tapset page, it's giving context ✨
