From 431035cf16837066ffdc5abc7e48a56cc1dfed5d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: davide Date: Mon, 4 Mar 2013 11:09:56 +0000 Subject: - Make callout(9) tickless, relying on eventtimers(4) as backend for precise time event generation. This greatly improves granularity of callouts which are not anymore constrained to wait next tick to be scheduled. - Extend the callout KPI introducing a set of callout_reset_sbt* functions, which take a sbintime_t as timeout argument. The new KPI also offers a way for consumers to specify precision tolerance they allow, so that callout can coalesce events and reduce number of interrupts as well as potentially avoid scheduling a SWI thread. - Introduce support for dispatching callouts directly from hardware interrupt context, specifying an additional flag. This feature should be used carefully, as long as interrupt context has some limitations (e.g. no sleeping locks can be held). - Enhance mechanisms to gather informations about callwheel, introducing a new sysctl to obtain stats. This change breaks the KBI. struct callout fields has been changed, in particular 'int ticks' (4 bytes) has been replaced with 'sbintime_t' (8 bytes) and another 'sbintime_t' field was added for precision.
