commit30c66fc30eupstream. When a timer is enqueued with a negative delta (ie: expiry is below base->clk), it gets added to the wheel as expiring now (base->clk). Yet the value that gets stored in base->next_expiry, while calling trigger_dyntick_cpu(), is the initial timer->expires value. The resulting state becomes: base->next_expiry < base->clk On the next timer enqueue, forward_timer_base() may accidentally rewind base->clk. As a possible outcome, timers may expire way too early, the worst case being that the highest wheel levels get spuriously processed again. To prevent from that, make sure that base->next_expiry doesn't get below base->clk.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
