[PATCH RT 32/36] timers: Track total number of timers in list

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu Mar 12 2015 - 15:23:48 EST


3.12.38-rt53-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

upstream commit: fff421580f512fc044cc7421fdff31a7a6997350

Currently, the tvec_base structure's ->active_timers field tracks only
the non-deferrable timers, which means that even if ->active_timers is
zero, there might well be deferrable timers in the list. This commit
therefore adds an ->all_timers field to track all the timers, whether
deferrable or not.
