From f84155ca851849e5e8981fddd3945a6cfeea220c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anthony Yznaga Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2023 16:33:12 -0800 Subject: padata: use alignment when calculating the number of worker threads For multithreaded jobs the computed chunk size is rounded up by the caller-specified alignment. However, the number of worker threads to use is computed using the minimum chunk size without taking alignment into account. A sufficiently large alignment value can result in too many worker threads being allocated for the job.
