Message-Id: <1468512304-15310-2-git-send-email-bigeasy@linutronix.de> Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2016 18:05:04 +0200 From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@...utronix.de> To: linux-rt-users@...r.kernel.org Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, tglx@...utronix.de, Steven Rostedt <rostedt@...dmis.org> Subject: [RT PATCH 2/2] timers: wakeup all timer waiters without holding the base lock There should be no need to hold the base lock during the wakeup. There should be no boosting involved, the wakeup list has its own lock so it should be safe to do this without the lock.
