Name

cancel_delayed_work — cancel a delayed work

Synopsis

bool cancel_delayed_work (struct delayed_work * dwork);
 

Arguments

dwork

delayed_work to cancel

Description

Kill off a pending delayed_work.

Return

true if dwork was pending and canceled; false if it wasn't pending.

Note

The work callback function may still be running on return, unless it returns true and the work doesn't re-arm itself. Explicitly flush or use cancel_delayed_work_sync to wait on it.

This function is safe to call from any context including IRQ handler.
