With this change, IDLETIMER is sending notifications once the timer becomes active again. > + > + /* TODO: Avoid modifying timers on each packet */ Regarding this TODO, you can adapt this code snippet for this: unsigned long newtime = jiffies + extra_jiffies; /* Only update the timeout if the new timeout is at * least HZ jiffies from the old timeout. Need del_timer * for race avoidance (may already be dying). */ if (newtime - ct->timeout.expires >= HZ) mod_timer_pending(&ct->timeout, newtime); We're using it in nf_conntrack. This should come in a separate patch. > mod_timer(&info->timer->timer, > - msecs_to_jiffies(info->timeout * 1000) + jiffies); > + msecs_to_jiffies(info->timeout * 1000) + now); > > return XT_CONTINUE; > } > @@ -184,6 +192,7 @@ static int idletimer_tg_checkentry(const struct xt_tgchk_param *par) > { > struct idletimer_tg_info *info = par->targinfo; > int ret; > + unsigned long now = jiffies; > > pr_debug("checkentry targinfo%s\n", info->label); > > @@ -204,8 +213,13 @@ static int idletimer_tg_checkentry(const struct xt_tgchk_param *par) > info->timer = __idletimer_tg_find_by_label(info->label); > if (info->timer) { > info->timer->refcnt++; > + if (time_before(info->timer->timer.expires, now)) { > + schedule_work(&info->timer->work); > + pr_debug("Starting Checkentry timer (Expired, Jiffies): %lu, %lu\n", > + info->timer->timer.expires, now); > + } > mod_timer(&info->timer->timer, > - msecs_to_jiffies(info->timeout * 1000) + jiffies); > + msecs_to_jiffies(info->timeout * 1000) + now); > > pr_debug("increased refcnt of timer %s to %u\n", > info->label, info->timer->refcnt); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
