Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] timerfd: Add support for deferrable timers
From: Anton Vorontsov <anton@...msg.org>
This patch implements a userland-side API for generic deferrable timers,
per linux/timer.h:
* 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.
These timers are crucial for power saving, i.e. periodic tasks that want
to work in background when the system is under use, but don't want to
cause wakeups themselves.
The deferred timers are somewhat orthogonal to high-res external timers,
since the deferred timer is tied to the system load, not just to some
external decrementer source.
So, currently, the implementation has a HZ precision, and the maximum
interval is jiffies resolution (i.e. with HZ=1000, on 32 bit that would
be around max 49 days). Of course we can implement longer timeouts by
rearming the timer, although it probably wouldn't make much sense in
real world, so we keep it simple and just return E2BIG if we don't like
the interval.
