From 887d9dc989eb0154492e41e7c07492edbb088ba1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2015 14:46:48 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] hrtimer: Allow hrtimer::function() to free the timer Currently an hrtimer callback function cannot free its own timer because __run_hrtimer() still needs to clear HRTIMER_STATE_CALLBACK after it. Freeing the timer would result in a clear use-after-free. Solve this by using a scheme similar to regular timers; track the current running timer in hrtimer_clock_base::running.
