v3:
1) hash calculation simlified to improve perfomance.
v2:
1) Hash table become RCU-friendly. Hash table search now done under RCU lock
protection.
I've tested scalability on KVM with 4 CPU. The testing environment was build
of 10 processes, each had 512 posix timers running (SIGSEV_NONE) and was
calling timer_gettime() in loop. With all this stuff being running, I was
measuring time of calling of syscall timer_gettime() 10000 times.
Without this patch: ~7ms
With this patch : ~7ms
This patch is required CRIU project (www.criu.org).
To migrate processes with posix timers we have to make sure, that we can
restore posix timer with proper id.
Currently, this is not true, because timer ids are allocated globally.
So, this is precursor patch and it's purpose is make posix timer id to be
allocated per process.
Patch replaces global idr with global hash table for posix timers and
makes timer ids unique not globally, but per task. Next free timer id is type
of integer and stored on signal struct (posix_timer_id). If free timer id
reaches negative value on timer creation, it will be dropped to zero and
-EAGAIN will be returned to user.
Hash table is size of page (4KB).
Key is constructed as follows:
key = hash_ptr(current->signal) ^ hash_32(posix_timer_id);

- * Management arrays for POSIX timers. Timers are kept in slab memory

- *
- * void *idr_find(struct idr *idp, int id); to find timer_id <id>
- * int idr_get_new(struct idr *idp, void *ptr); to get a new id and
- * related it to <ptr>

- * void idr_init(struct idr *idp); to initialize <idp>

- * The idr_get_new *may* call slab for more memory so it must not be
- * called under a spin lock. Likewise idr_remore may release memory
- * (but it may be ok to do this under a lock...).
- * idr_find is just a memory look up and is quite fast. A -1 return
- * indicates that the requested id does not exist.

+ * This keeps timer ids unique per process, but now they can intersect between
+ * processes.
