Date: Sat, 7 Dec 2013 01:40:06 +0100 From: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@...hat.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: kvm@...r.kernel.org, linux-arch@...r.kernel.org, rostedt@...dmis.org, pbonzini@...hat.com, tglx@...utronix.de, mingo@...hat.com, hpa@...or.com, x86@...nel.org, arnd@...db.de, rusty@...tcorp.com.au, Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@...hat.com> Subject: [PATCH v2 5/5] static_key: improve deferred inc behavior We can cancel deferred static_key_slow_dec() instead of increasing .enabled.counter. Timer now won't fire before 'timeout' since the last increase, so this patch further stabilizes the case of frequent switching.
