Add a flag to indicate deferrable timers in /proc/timer_stats

2007-07-16T16:05:45+00:00

Add a flag in /proc/timer_stats to indicate deferrable timers.  This will
let developers/users to differentiate between types of tiemrs in
/proc/timer_stats.

Deferrable timer and normal timer will appear in /proc/timer_stats as below.
  10D,     1 swapper          queue_delayed_work_on (delayed_work_timer_fn)
   10,     1 swapper          queue_delayed_work_on (delayed_work_timer_fn)

Also version of timer_stats changes from v0.1 to v0.2

[PATCH] high-res timers: resume fix

2007-04-07T17:03:43+00:00

Soeren Sonnenburg reported that upon resume he is getting
this backtrace:

 [] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x57/0x90
 [] retrigger_next_event+0x0/0xb0
 [] apic_timer_interrupt+0x28/0x30
 [] retrigger_next_event+0x0/0xb0
 [] __kfifo_put+0x8/0x90
 [] on_each_cpu+0x35/0x60
 [] clock_was_set+0x18/0x20
 [] timekeeping_resume+0x7c/0xa0
 [] __sysdev_resume+0x11/0x80
 [] sysdev_resume+0x47/0x80
 [] device_power_up+0x5/0x10

it turns out that on resume we mistakenly re-enable interrupts too
early.  Do the timer retrigger only on the current CPU.

[PATCH] hrtimers: hrtimer_clock_base description typo

2007-03-06T17:30:24+00:00

The description for the hrtimer_clock_base struct describes "hrtimer_base".
 That should be hrtimer_clock_base.

[PATCH] hrtimers: fix HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ description

2007-03-06T17:30:24+00:00

The description for HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ is backwards; "NO
SOFTIRQ" sounds a whole lot like it means it must not be run in a softirq.

[PATCH] Add debugging feature /proc/timer_stat

2007-02-16T16:13:59+00:00

Add /proc/timer_stats support: debugging feature to profile timer expiration.
Both the starting site, process/PID and the expiration function is captured.
This allows the quick identification of timer event sources in a system.

Sample output:

# echo 1 > /proc/timer_stats
# cat /proc/timer_stats

[PATCH] hrtimers: add high resolution timer support

2007-02-16T16:13:59+00:00

Implement high resolution timers on top of the hrtimers infrastructure and the
clockevents / tick-management framework.  This provides accurate timers for
all hrtimer subsystem users.

[PATCH] tick-management: dyntick / highres functionality

2007-02-16T16:13:59+00:00

With Ingo Molnar 

Add functions to provide dynamic ticks and high resolution timers.  The code
which keeps track of jiffies and handles the long idle periods is shared
between tick based and high resolution timer based dynticks.  The dyntick
functionality can be disabled on the kernel commandline.  Provide also the
infrastructure to support high resolution timers.

[PATCH] clockevents: add core functionality

2007-02-16T16:13:59+00:00

Architectures register their clock event devices, in the clock events core.
Users of the clockevents core can get clock event devices for their use.  The
clockevents core code provides notification mechanisms for various clock
related management events.

This allows to control the clock event devices without the architectures
having to worry about the details of function assignment.  This is also a
preliminary for high resolution timers and dynamic ticks to allow the core
code to control the clock functionality without intrusive changes to the
architecture code.
