Subject: [GIT PULL] timer changes for v3.7
Linus,
Please pull the latest timers-core-for-linus git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git timers-core-for-linus
HEAD: c5f66e99b7cb091e3d51ae8e8156892e8feb7fa3 timer: Implement TIMER_IRQSAFE
timer enhancements, generalizations and cleanups from Tejun Heo,
in preparation for workqueue facility enhancements.
Thanks,
Ingo
------------------>
Tejun Heo (4):
timer: Generalize timer->base flags handling
timer: Relocate declarations of init_timer_on_stack_key()
timer: Clean up timer initializers
timer: Implement TIMER_IRQSAFE

+ * Note that all tvec_bases are at least 4 byte aligned and lower two bits
+ * of base in timer_list is guaranteed to be zero. Use them for flags.
*
* A deferrable timer will work normally when the system is busy, but
* will not cause a CPU to come out of idle just to service it; instead,
* the timer will be serviced when the CPU eventually wakes up with a
* subsequent non-deferrable timer.
+ *
+ * An irqsafe timer is executed with IRQ disabled and it's safe to wait for
+ * the completion of the running instance from IRQ handlers, for example,
+ * by calling del_timer_sync().
+ *
+ * Note: The irq disabled callback execution is a special case for
+ * workqueue locking issues. It's not meant for executing random crap
+ * with interrupts disabled. Abuse is monitored!
