* hrtimer: Remove hrtimer_enqueue_reprogram()Viresh Kumar2014-06-231-15/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We call hrtimer_enqueue_reprogram() only when we are in high resolution mode now so we don't need to check that again in hrtimer_enqueue_reprogram(). Once the check is removed, hrtimer_enqueue_reprogram() turns to be an useless wrapper over hrtimer_reprogram() and can be dropped.

* hrtimer: Kick lowres dynticks targets on timer enqueueViresh Kumar2014-06-231-8/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In lowres mode, hrtimers are serviced by the tick instead of a clock event. It works well as long as the tick stays periodic but we must also make sure that the hrtimers are serviced in dynticks mode targets, pretty much like timer list timers do. Note that all dynticks modes are concerned: get_nohz_timer_target() tries not to return remote idle CPUs but there is nothing to prevent the elected target from entering dynticks idle mode until we lock its base. It's also prefectly legal to enqueue hrtimers on full dynticks CPU. So there are two requirements to correctly handle dynticks: 1) On target's tick stop time, we must not delay the next tick further the next hrtimer. 2) On hrtimer queue time. If the tick of the target is stopped, we must wake up that CPU such that it sees the new hrtimer and recalculate the next tick accordingly. The point 1 is well handled currently through get_nohz_timer_interrupt() and cmp_next_hrtimer_event(). But the point 2 isn't handled at all. Fixing this is easy though as we have the necessary API ready for that. All we need is to call wake_up_nohz_cpu() on a target when a newly enqueued hrtimer requires tick rescheduling, like timer list timer do.

* hrtimer: Store cpu-number in struct hrtimer_cpu_baseViresh Kumar2014-06-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In lowres mode, hrtimers are serviced by the tick instead of a clock event. Now it works well as long as the tick stays periodic but we must also make sure that the hrtimers are serviced in dynticks mode. Part of that job consist in kicking a dynticks hrtimer target in order to make it reconsider the next tick to schedule to correctly handle the hrtimer's expiring time. And that part isn't handled by the hrtimers subsystem. To prepare for fixing this, we need __hrtimer_start_range_ns() to be able to resolve the CPU target associated to a hrtimer's object 'cpu_base' so that the kick can be centralized there. So lets store it in the 'struct hrtimer_cpu_base' to resolve the CPU without overhead. It is set once at CPU's online notification.

Except for Kconfig.HZ. That needs a separate treatment. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
