From d027d45d8a17a4145eab2d841140e9acbb7feb59 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Sun, 7 Jun 2015 15:54:30 +0200 Subject: nohz: New tick dependency mask The tick dependency is evaluated on every IRQ and context switch. This consists is a batch of checks which determine whether it is safe to stop the tick or not. These checks are often split in many details: posix cpu timers, scheduler, sched clock, perf events.... each of which are made of smaller details: posix cpu timer involves checking process wide timers then thread wide timers. Perf involves checking freq events then more per cpu details. Checking these informations asynchronously every time we update the full dynticks state bring avoidable overhead and a messy layout. Let's introduce instead tick dependency masks: one for system wide dependency (unstable sched clock, freq based perf events), one for CPU wide dependency (sched, throttling perf events), and task/signal level dependencies (posix cpu timers). The subsystems are responsible for setting and clearing their dependency through a set of APIs that will take care of concurrent dependency mask modifications and kick targets to restart the relevant CPU tick whenever needed. This new dependency engine stays beside the old one until all subsystems having a tick dependency are converted to it.
