workqueue: skip the node_nr_active update for non-unbound workqueuesgrafted
apply_wqattrs_commit() updates node_nr_active->max unconditionally.
wq->node_nr_active[] is only allocated for unbound workqueues, so guard
the call before per-cpu workqueues start using this path.
No functional change: only unbound workqueues reach apply_wqattrs_*()
today.

A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to + install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a + CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies + first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option + enabled for this to work. + + The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel + ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected + with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4 + bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on + bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a + time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in + <file:Documentation/networking/plip.rst>. The cables can be up to + 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows + and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet + driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>) + and winsock or NCSA's telnet. + + If you want to use PLIP, say Y and read the PLIP mini-HOWTO as well + as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from + <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP + protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together + with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges + your kernel by about 8 KB. + + To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module + will be called plip. If unsure, say Y or M, in case you buy + a laptop later. |
