Subject: [v2 PATCH 1/4] timers: framework to identify pinned timers.
* Arun R Bharadwaj <arun@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> [2009-03-04 17:42:49]:
This patch creates a new framework for identifying cpu-pinned timers
and hrtimers.
This framework is needed because pinned timers are expected to fire on
the same CPU on which they are queued. So it is essential to identify
these and not migrate them, in case there are any.
For regular timers a new flag called TBASE_PINNED_FLAG is created.
Since the last 3 bits of the tvec_base is guaranteed to be 0, and
since the last bit is being used to indicate deferrable timers,
the second last bit is used to indicate cpu-pinned regular timers.
The implementation of functions to manage the TBASE_PINNED_FLAG is
similar to those which manage the TBASE_DEFERRABLE_FLAG.
For hrtimers, a new interface hrtimer_start_pinned() is created,
which can be used to queue cpu-pinned hrtimer.
