This patchset tries to fix the problem by introducing upper bound kernel timers and making tcp keepalive timer use those. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210302001054.4qgrvnkltvkgikzr@treble/T/#u --- Changes in v4: - Drop any attempts to be smart when calculating timer adjustment and always substract LVL_GRAN so that base clock lag won't be such a problem. This means that in some cases we will always be early, but all we want is not to be late. Changes in v3: - A different approach: instead of introducing upper bound timers try to account for timer wheen granularity on timer (re)arming step. - Not sure whether moving lvl calculation into a separate function is worth it. - Had a hard time naming the upper_bount_timeout() function - any suggestions welcome. Changes in v2: - TIMER_UPPER_BOUND flag description added as a comment in timer.h - Code style fixes - More elaborate commit message in timer commit Artem Savkov (2): timer: add a function to adjust timeouts to be upper bound net: make tcp keepalive timer upper bound include/linux/timer.h | 1 + kernel/time/timer.c | 68 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++------- net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c | 2 +- 3 files changed, 57 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) -- 2.34.1
