From 934715a191e4be0c602d39455a7a74316f274d60 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Low Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2015 12:07:54 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] posix_cpu_timer: Check thread timers only when there are active thread timers The fastpath_timer_check() contains logic to check for if any timers are set by checking if !task_cputime_zero(). Similarly, we can do this before calling check_thread_timers(). In the case where there are only process-wide timers, this will skip all of the computations for per-thread timers when there are no per-thread timers. As suggested by George, we can put the task_cputime_zero() check in check_thread_timers(), since that is more of an optization to the function. Similarly, we move the existing check of cputimer->running to check_process_timers(). Signed-off-by: Jason Low Reviewed-by: Oleg Nesterov Reviewed-by: George Spelvin Cc: Paul E.
