[PATCH RT 06/30] KVM: arm/arm64: Let the timer expire in hardirq context on RT

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.19.94-rt39-rc2 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 719cc080c914045a6e35787bf4dc3ba91cfd3efb ]

The timers are canceled from an preempt-notifier which is invoked with
disabled preemption which is not allowed on PREEMPT_RT.
The timer callback is short so in could be invoked in hard-IRQ context
on -RT.

Let the timer expire on hard-IRQ context even on -RT.
