Currently the flow table offload replace, destroy and stats work items are executed on a single workqueue. As such, DESTROY and STATS commands may be backloged after a burst of REPLACE work items. This scenario can bloat up memory and may cause active connections to age. Instatiate add, del and stats workqueues to avoid backlogs of non-dependent actions. Provide sysfs control over the workqueue attributes, allowing userspace applications to control the workqueue cpumask.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
