Joel, Uladzislau, thoughts? On this specific point, I repeated the tests with the latest 6.8 kernel and now I don't notice this difference anymore. hrtimer_interrupt() time is always in the range [4K, 16K) ns, both with lazy RCU off and lazy RCU on. I don't really know why I was getting different results, probably some noise triggered by something running in user-space...? In any case I will update my old post with these new results and I wouldn't consider this an issue for now. Thanks, -Andrea
