浅析linux内核中timer定时器的生成和sofirq软中断调用流程

  mod_timer添加的定时器timer在内核的软中断中发生调用,__run_timers会spin_lock_irq(&base->lock);禁止cpu中断,所以我们的timer回调处理函数handler工作在irq关闭的环境中,所以需要作很多考虑,比如在handler中尽量不要执行会引起pending的函数调用,比如kmalloc之类可能引起pending的操作,否则会使kernel永远停在我们的handler中不能返回,这样kernel将因为我们ko设计上的失败而死机[luther.gliethttp]!
  我们可以使用如下几行语句,向我们的ko驱动添加一个timer定时器,来处理时间事件:
struct __wlanwlan_check_tx_flow_timer
{
    struct timer_list timer;
    int timer_freq;
} wlan_check_tx_flow_timer = {
        .timer_freq = 8*1000,
};
static void wlan_check_tx_flow_timer_handler(unsigned long data)
{
    ...
    //重新启动timer定时器 
    mod_timer(&wlan_check_tx_flow_timer.timer, jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(wlan_check_tx_flow_timer.timer_freq));
    ...
}
//设置定时器
setup_timer(&wlan_check_tx_flow_timer.timer, wlan_check_tx_flow_timer_handler, (unsigned long)&wlan_check_tx_flow_timer);
//添加定时器
mod_timer(&wlan_check_tx_flow_timer.timer, jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(wlan_check_tx_flow_timer.timer_freq));

那么这个wlan_check_tx_flow_timer_handler处理函数在什么时候被调用的呢？那么我们追入内核中,看看kernel对定时器的具体管理.
首先kernel在启动的最前面注册TIMER_SOFTIRQ的处理函数[luther.gliethttp],
start_kernel
=>init_timers
=>open_softirq(TIMER_SOFTIRQ, run_timer_softirq, NULL);
那么由谁来调用raise_softirq(TIMER_SOFTIRQ);触发TIMER_SOFTIRQ软中断呢,这就和平台相关了,对于pxa935处理器来说[luther.gliethttp],
MACHINE_START(LUTHER, "luther")
    .phys_io = 0x40000000,
    .boot_params = 0xa0000100,
    .io_pg_offst = (io_p2v(0x40000000) >> 18) & 0xfffc,
    .map_io = pxa_map_io,
    .init_irq = pxa3xx_init_irq,
    .timer = &pxa_timer,
    .init_machine = luther_init,
MACHINE_END
=>pxa_timer_init//平台对应的定时器初始化
==>pxa_timer_irq.dev_id = &ckevt_32ktimer;
==>setup_irq(IRQ_OST_4_11, &pxa_timer_irq); //32768的rtc
==>clockevents_register_device(&ckevt_32ktimer);

pxa_timer_interrupt中断处理函数
=>c->event_handler(c);也就是tick_handle_periodic系统时钟函数
=>tick_handle_periodic
=>update_process_times
=>run_local_timers
=>raise_softirq(TIMER_SOFTIRQ);
这里仅仅是触发了TIMER_SOFTIRQ软中断,那么在什么地方处理我们mod_timer添加的timer定时器处理函数wlan_check_tx_flow_timer_handler呢[luther.gliethttp]？
__irq_svc://内核中发生的中断
__irq_usr://用户空间时发生的中断
=>asm_do_IRQ
=>irq_exit
=>do_softirq
=>__do_softirq
=>调用上面注册的run_timer_softirq软中断处理函数
=>run_timer_softirq
=>__run_timers
static inline void __run_timers(struct tvec_base *base)
{
    struct timer_list *timer;

    spin_lock_irq(&base->lock);//禁止中断
    while (time_after_eq(jiffies, base->timer_jiffies)) {
        ...
        if (时间到了) {
        ...
        fn = timer->function;
        data = timer->data;
        fn(data);//这就是我们上面添加的static void wlan_check_tx_flow_timer_handler(unsigned long data);定时器处理函数了.
        ...
        }
        ...
    }
    set_running_timer(base, NULL);
    spin_unlock_irq(&base->lock);//打开中断
