Subject: [PATCH 0/5] tick/broadcast: Allow per-cpu timers to be used instead of broadcast
Date: Thu, 20 May 2021 19:47:00 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210520184705.10845-1-will@kernel.org> (raw)
Hi all,
This patch series adds support for hardware where the per-cpu tick timer
cannot wake up from deep idle states (i.e. CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP is set)
yet there is a secondary per-cpu timer which is generally less preferable
(i.e. slow to access) yet capable of delivering the wakeup.
The meat and potatoes are in patches 3 and 4, but since I've not hacked
on this part of the kernel before I would appreciate feedback on any of
the changes I'm proposing.
Cheers,
Will
