[PATCH] Revised timerfd() interface

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Andrew,

Here's my first shot at changing the timerfd() interface; patch
is against 2.6.23-rc1-mm2.

I think I got to the bottom of understanding the timer code in
the end, but I may still have missed some things...

This is my first kernel patch of any substance.  Perhaps Randy
or Christoph can give my toes a light toasting for the various
boobs I've likely made.

Thomas, would you please look over this patch to verify my
timer code?

Davide: would you please bless this interface change ;-).
It makes it possible to:

1) Fetch the previous timer settings (i.e., interval, and time
   remaining until next expiration) while installing new settings

2) Retrieve the settings of an existing timer without changing
   the timer.

Both of these features are supported by the older Unix timer APIs
(setitimer/getitimer and timer_create/timer_settime/timer_gettime).

The changes are as follows:

a) A further argument, outmr, can be used to retrieve the interval
   and time remaining before the expiration of a previously created
   timer.  Thus the call signature is now:

   timerfd(int utmr, int clockid, int flags,
           struct itimerspec *utmr,
           struct itimerspec *outmr)

   The outmr argument:

   1) must be NULL for a new timer (ufd == -1).
   2) can be NULL if we are updating an existing
      timer (i.e., utmr != NULL), but we are not
      interested in the previous timer value.
   3) can be used to retrieve the time until next timer
      expiration, without changing the timer.
      (In this case, utmr == NULL and ufd >= 0.)

b) Make the 'clockid' immutable: it can only be set
   if 'ufd' is -1 -- that is, on the timerfd() call that
   first creates a timer.  (This is effectively
   the limitation that is imposed by POSIX timers: the
   clockid is specified when the timer is created with
   timer_create(), and can't be changed.)

   [In the 2.6.22 interface, the clockid of an existing
   timer can be changed with a further call to timerfd()
   that specifies the file descriptor of an existing timer.]

The use cases are as follows:

ufd = timerfd(-1, clockid, flags, utmr, NULL);
to create a new timer with given clockid, flags, and utmr (initial
expiration + interval).  outmr must be NULL.

ufd = timerfd(ufd, -1, flags, utmr, NULL);
to change the flags and timer settings of an existing timer.
(The clockid argument serves no purpose when modifying an
existing timer, and as I've implemented things, the argument
must be specified as -1 for an existing timer.)

ufd = timerfd(ufd, -1, flags, utmr, &outmr);
to change the flags and timer settings of an existing timer, and
retrieve the time until the next expiration of the timer (and
the associated interval).

ufd = timerfd(ufd, -1, 0, NULL, &outmr);
Return the time until the next expiration of the timer (and the
associated interval), without changing the existing timer settings.
The flags argument has no meaning in this case, and must be
specified as 0.

Other changes:

* I've added checks for various combinations of arguments values
  that could be deemed invalid; there is probably room for debate
  about whether we want all of these checks.  Comments in the
  patch describe these checks.

* Appropriate, and possibly even correct, changes made in fs/compat.c.

* Jan Engelhardt noted that a cast could be removed from Davide's
  original code; I've removed it.

The changes are correct as far as I've tested them.  I've attached a
test program.  Davide, could you subject this to further test please?

I'm off on holiday the day after tomorrow, back in two weeks, with
very limited computer access.  I may have time for another pass of
the code if comments come in over(euro)night, otherwise Davide may
be willing to clean up whatever I messed up...

Cheers,

Michael
