9 * timer_stats is based on timer_top, a similar functionality which was part of
10 * Con Kolivas dyntick patch set. It was developed by Daniel Petrini at the
11 * Instituto Nokia de Tecnologia - INdT - Manaus. timer_top's design was based
12 * on dynamic allocation of the statistics entries and linear search based
13 * lookup combined with a global lock, rather than the static array, hash
14 * and per-CPU locking which is used by timer_stats. It was written for the
15 * pre hrtimer kernel code and therefore did not take hrtimers into account.
16 * Nevertheless it provided the base for the timer_stats implementation and
17 * was a helpful source of inspiration. Kudos to Daniel and the Nokia folks

49 * This is our basic unit of interest: a timer expiry event identified
50 * by the timer, its start/expire functions and the PID of the task that
51 * started the timer. We count the number of times an event happens:
68 * Number of timeout events:
73 * We save the command-line string to preserve
74 * this information past task exit:
76 char comm[TASK_COMM_LEN + 1];
78 } ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp;
81 * Spinlock protecting the tables - not taken during lookup:
83 static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(table_lock);
86 * Per-CPU lookup locks for fast hash lookup:
88 static DEFINE_PER_CPU(spinlock_t, lookup_lock);
91 * Mutex to serialize state changes with show-stats activities:
93 static DEFINE_MUTEX(show_mutex);
96 * Collection status, active/inactive:
98 static int __read_mostly active;
101 * Beginning/end timestamps of measurement:
103 static ktime_t time_start, time_stop;
106 * tstat entry structs only get allocated while collection is
107 * active and never freed during that time - this simplifies
108 * things quite a bit.
110 * They get freed when a new collection period is started.
