Hmmm. If active_timers is 0 and "time_before_eq(base->next_timer, jiffies))" is true than that timer should have been initialized with init_timer_deferrable() or we have a serious bug here where active_timers isn't properly synchronized anymore. Now. If there is really just a deferrable timer that expired and nothing else then this would explain it. > -out: > + > rt_spin_unlock_after_trylock_in_irq(&base->lock); > > } Sebastian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
