[patch 17/45] posix-cpu-timers: Make k_itimer::it_active consistent
Posted by Thomas Gleixner 2 years, 8 months ago
Posix CPU timers are not updating k_itimer::it_active which makes it
impossible to base decisions in the common posix timer code on it.

Update it when queueing or dequeueing posix CPU timers.

Maybe move this to cpu_timer_fire() because:

1) Other posix-timer implementation set it_active = 0
   from their actual handler.

2) This place doesn't have the timer locked. Better Make
   sure we have this protection to avoid mistakes against
   potential future use of it_active.

Thanks.
