Subject: [PATCH 0/6] posix-cpu-timers: Bunch of fixes
Date: Fri,  4 Jun 2021 13:31:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210604113159.26177-1-frederic@kernel.org> (raw)

The first is a race due to locklessly starting process wide cputime
counting.

The others stop the process wide cputime counting and tick dependency
when they are not necessary anymore.

Note I don't really like patch 5/6 and in fact I hope we could manage to
remove this early inline cpu_timer_fire() call from timer_settime(). All
we get from it is headaches. Besides, the handler isn't invoked from the
actual target and that doesn't sound ideal.

HEAD: f8f908c9d2b2f1e100cd549206c95a4e65e5f023

Thanks,
	Frederic
