Decouple the semcount and the work queue length.
Previous Problem:
If a work is queued and cancelled in high priority threads (or queued
by timer and cancelled by another high priority thread) before
work_thread runs, the queue operation will mark work_thread as ready to
run, but the cancel operation minus the semcount back to -1 and makes
wqueue->q empty. Then the work_thread still runs, found empty queue,
and wait sem again, then semcount becomes -2 (being minused by 1)
This can be done multiple times, then semcount can become very small
value. Test case to produce incorrect semcount:
high_priority_task()
{
for (int i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
{
work_queue(LPWORK, &work, worker, NULL, 0);
work_cancel(LPWORK, &work);
usleep(1);
}
/* Now the g_lpwork.sem.semcount is a value near -10000 */
}
With incorrect semcount, any queue operation when the work_thread is
busy, will only increase semcount and push work into queue, but cannot
trigger work_thread (semcount is negative but work_thread is not
waiting), then there will be more and more works left in queue while
the work_thread is waiting sem and cannot call them.
