From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 2 Apr 2025 13:31:14 +0000 (+0000) Subject: posix-timers: Initialize cache early and move pointer into __timer_data X-Git-Tag: v6.16-rc1~183^2~6 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0df6db767a535472a46aeea93c280de067784a9f;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git posix-timers: Initialize cache early and move pointer into __timer_data Move posix_timers_cache initialization to posixtimer_init(). At that point the memory subsystem is already up and running. Also move the cache pointer to the __timer_data variable to avoid potential false sharing, since it never was marked as __ro_after_init.
