rose /proc code does not serialize timer accesses. Initial report by Bernard F6BVP Pidoux exhibits overflow amounting to 116 ticks on its HZ=250 system. Full timer access serialization would imho be overkill as rose /proc does not enforce consistency between displayed ROSE_STATE_XYZ and timer values during changes of state. The patch may also fix similar behavior in ax25 /proc, ax25 ioctl and netrom /proc as they all exhibit the same timer serialization policy. This point has not been reported though. The sole remaining use of ax25_display_timer - ax25 rtt valuation - may also perform marginally better but I have not analyzed it too deeply.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
