litmus-rt.git/kernel/time, branch wip-shared-lib The LITMUS^RT kernel. Augment rt_task() with is_realtime() 2015-08-09T11:20:13+00:00 Bjoern Brandenburg bbb@mpi-sws.org 2015-08-09T11:18:50+00:00 13e68a73175041c83713fd1905c65fe612f73862 Whenever the kernel checks for rt_task() to avoid delaying real-time tasks, we want it to also not delay LITMUS^RT tasks. Hence, most calls to rt_task() should be matched by an equivalent call to is_realtime(). Notably, this affects the implementations of select() and nanosleep(), which use timer_slack_ns when setting up timers for non-real-time tasks.

Add hrtimer_start_on() support 2015-08-09T10:21:17+00:00 Bjoern Brandenburg bbb@mpi-sws.org 2015-08-09T11:18:46+00:00 5014e7011964ff46b2d73cf91a05ed9eed5a8fa2 This patch adds hrtimer_start_on(), which allows arming timers on remote CPUs. This is needed to avoided timer interrupts on "shielded" CPUs and is also useful for implementing semi-partitioned schedulers.

ktime: Fix ktime_divns to do signed division 2015-05-13T08:19:35+00:00 John Stultz john.stultz@linaro.org 2015-05-08T20:47:23+00:00 f7bcb70ebae0dcdb5a2d859b09e4465784d99029 It was noted that the 32bit implementation of ktime_divns() was doing unsigned division and didn't properly handle negative values. And when a ktime helper was changed to utilize ktime_divns, it caused a regression on some IR blasters. See the following bugzilla for details: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1200353 This patch fixes the problem in ktime_divns by checking and preserving the sign bit, and then reapplying it if appropriate after the division, it also changes the return type to a s64 to make it more obvious this is expected. Nicolas also pointed out that negative dividers would cause infinite loops on 32bit systems, negative dividers is unlikely for users of this function, but out of caution this patch adds checks for negative dividers for both 32-bit (BUG_ON) and 64-bit(WARN_ON) versions to make sure no such use cases creep in.
