Subject: [PATCH 6/6] posix-cpu-timers: Force next expiration recalc after itimer reset
Date: Fri,  4 Jun 2021 13:31:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210604113159.26177-7-frederic@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210604113159.26177-1-frederic@kernel.org>

When an itimer deactivates a previously armed expiration, it simply
doesn't do anything. As a result the process wide cputime counter keeps
running and the tick dependency stays set until we reach the old
ghost expiration value.

This can be reproduced with the following snippet:

	void trigger_process_counter(void)
	{
		struct itimerval n = {};

		n.it_value.tv_sec = 100;
		setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &n, NULL);
		n.it_value.tv_sec = 0;
		setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &n, NULL);
	}

Fix this with resetting the relevant base expiration. This is similar
to disarming a timer.
