2026-03-05workqueue: Add stall detector sample moduleBreno Leitao
Add a sample module under samples/workqueue/stall_detector/ that reproduces a workqueue stall caused by PF_WQ_WORKER misuse. The module queues two work items on the same per-CPU pool, then clears PF_WQ_WORKER and sleeps in wait_event_idle(), hiding from the concurrency manager and stalling the second work item indefinitely. This is useful for testing the workqueue watchdog stall diagnostics. Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org> Acked-by: Song Liu <song@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
