[patch 27/44] posix-cpu-timers: Provide array based access to expiry cache
From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Mon Aug 19 2019 - 11:46:31 EST
Using struct task_cputime for the expiry cache is a pretty odd choice and
comes with magic defines to rename the fields for usage in the expiry
cache.
struct task_cputime is basically a u64 array with 3 members, but it has
distinct members.
The expiry cache content is different than the content of task_cputime
because
expiry[PROF] = task_cputime.stime + task_cputime.utime
expiry[VIRT] = task_cputime.utime
expiry[SCHED] = task_cputime.sum_exec_runtime
So there is no direct mapping between task_cputime and the expiry cache and
the #define based remapping is just a horrible hack.
Having the expiry cache array based allows further simplification of the
expiry code.
To avoid an all in one cleanup which is hard to review add a temporary
anonymous union into struct task_cputime which allows array based access to
it. That requires to reorder the members. Add a build time sanity check to
validate that the members are at the same place.
The union and the build time checks will be removed after conversion.
