From: Stanislaw Gruszka Date: Thu, 11 Mar 2010 22:04:31 +0000 (-0800) Subject: posix-cpu-timers: Reset expire cache when no timer is running X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=15365c108ea27598e265f8c13e7051d99ca5b0b9;p=linux-beck.git posix-cpu-timers: Reset expire cache when no timer is running When a process deletes cpu timer or a timer expires we do not clear the expiration cache sig->cputimer_expires. As a result the fastpath_timer_check() which prevents us to loop over all threads in case no timer is active is not working and we run the slow path needlessly on every tick. Zero sig->cputimer_expires in stop_process_timers().
