[PATCH 5.10 367/379] hrtimer: Ignore slack time for RT tasks in schedule_hrtimeout_range()

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

 



5.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0c52310f260014d95c1310364379772cb74cf82d upstream.

While in theory the timer can be triggered before expires + delta, for the
cases of RT tasks they really have no business giving any lenience for
extra slack time, so override any passed value by the user and always use
zero for schedule_hrtimeout_range() calls. Furthermore, this is similar to
what the nanosleep(2) family already does with current->timer_slack_ns.
