debugobjects: add timer specific object debugging code

2008-04-30T15:29:53Z

Add calls to the generic object debugging infrastructure and provide fixup functions which allow to keep the system alive when recoverable problems have been detected by the object debugging core code.

timers: simplify lockdep handling

2008-04-17T10:22:31Z

In order to avoid the false positive from lockdep, each per-cpu base->lock has the separate lock class and migrate_timers() uses double_spin_lock(). This all is overcomplicated: except for migrate_timers() we never take 2 locks at once, and migrate_timers() can use spin_lock_nested().

NOHZ: reevaluate idle sleep length after add_timer_on()

2008-03-26T07:28:55Z

add_timer_on() can add a timer on a CPU which is currently in a long idle sleep, but the timer wheel is not reevaluated by the nohz code on that CPU. So a timer can be delayed for quite a long time. This triggered a false positive in the clocksource watchdog code. To avoid this we need to wake up the idle CPU and enforce the reevaluation of the timer wheel for the next timer event. Add a function, which checks a given CPU for idle state, marks the idle task with NEED_RESCHED and sends a reschedule IPI to notify the other CPU of the change in the timer wheel. Call this function from add_timer_on().

Pidns: make full use of xxx_vnr() calls

2008-02-08T17:22:29Z

Some time ago the xxx_vnr() calls (e.g. pid_vnr or find_task_by_vpid) were _all_ converted to operate on the current pid namespace. After this each call like xxx_nr_ns(foo, current->nsproxy->pid_ns) is nothing but a xxx_vnr(foo) one. Switch all the xxx_nr_ns() callers to use the xxx_vnr() calls where appropriate.

taskstats scaled time cleanup

2008-02-06T18:41:00Z

This moves the ability to scale cputime into generic code. This allows us to fix the issue in kernel/timer.c (noticed by Balbir) where we could only add an unscaled value to the scaled utime/stime. This adds a cputime_to_scaled function. As before, the POWERPC version does the scaling based on the last SPURR/PURR ratio calculated. The generic and s390 (only other arch to implement asm/cputime.h) versions are both NOPs. Also moves the SPURR and PURR snapshots closer.

hrtimer: fixup the HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ fallback

2008-01-25T20:08:31Z

Currently all highres=off timers are run from softirq context, but HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ timers expect to run from irq context. Fix this up by splitting it similar to the highres=on case. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar
