Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] powerpc: enable to run posix cpu timers in task context
Date: Thu,  9 Jul 2026 11:59:42 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260709062940.1679427-6-vishalc@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260709062940.1679427-2-vishalc@linux.ibm.com>

Now that all kvm entry to guest paths handle the task work
using the generic framework, enable HAVE_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK
which allows running posix cpu timers in task context instead of running
them in hardirq. This would is a necessary step towards enabling
PREEMPT_RT on powerNV systems.
