内核线程 && completion使用方法

Linux系统提供了一种比信号量更好的同步机制，即completion，它用于一个执行单元等待另一个执行单元执行完某事。Linux系统中与completion相关的操作主要有以下4种:
    (1) 定义completion
        struct completion my_completion;
    (2) 初始化completion
        init_completion(&my_completion);
        对my_completion的定义和初始化可以通过如下快捷方式实现
        DECLEARE_COMPLETION(my_completion);
    (3) 等待completion
        void wait_for_completion(struct completion *c);
    (4) 唤醒completion
        void complete(struct completion *c);
        void complete_all(struct completion *c);
        前者只唤醒一个等待的执行单元，后者唤醒所有等待同一completion的执行单元。

     执行单元A                                 执行单元B
    struct completion com;
    init_completion(&com);
                                  wake up
    wait_for_completion(&com); <----------- complete(&com);
