Subject: [PATCH 2/2] powerpc: enable to run posix cpu timers in task context
Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2025 15:58:37 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250421102837.78515-3-sshegde@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250421102837.78515-1-sshegde@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.
