Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
![]() Erik reported that on a preproduction hardware a CMCI storm triggers the BUG_ON in add_timer_on(). The reason is that the per CPU MCE timer is started by the CMCI logic before the MCE CPU hotplug callback starts the timer with add_timer_on(). So the timer is already queued which triggers the BUG. Using add_timer_on() is pretty pointless in this code because the timer is strictlty per CPU, initialized as pinned and all operations which arm the timer happen on the CPU to which the timer belongs. Simplify the whole machinery by using mod_timer() instead of add_timer_on() which avoids the problem because mod_timer() can handle already queued timers. Use __start_timer() everywhere so the earliest armed expiry time is preserved.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
