Subject: [Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 3/5] drivers/md/push_backup: do not re-arm deadline timer in push_backup_write()
Date: Tue,  3 Nov 2026 02:38:47 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261102233849.613155-4-andrey.zhadchenko@virtuozzo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261102233849.613155-1-andrey.zhadchenko@virtuozzo.com>

pb_timer_func() checks pb->deadline_jiffies every time it fires,
so we actually don't need to re-arm the timer after setting the
filed.

This is also the only place that arms the timer outside the window
push_backup_stop() waits for with synchronize_rcu(). Today it is
harmless because write and stop are serialized by pb->ctl_rwsem,
but it would re-arm the timer behind timer_delete_sync_try() once
the write path is reachable without the rwsem (next patches).
