2018-10-22Handling of timers with bias.Valentin Bartenev1-4/+4
Timers that don't require maximum precision (most of them, actually) can be triggered earlier or later within the bias interval. To reduce wakeups by timers, the expire function now triggers not only all timers that fall within the elapsed time, but also those whose bias falls within this interval.
2018-10-22Re-engineered timers.Valentin Bartenev1-13/+23
To optimize rbtree operations, all changes are stored in array and later processed in batches. The previous implementation of this mechanics had a number of design flaws. Each change was saved in a new array entry; until the changes were applied, the timer remained in an intermediate state (NXT_TIMER_CHANGING). This intermediate state didn't allow to identify if time was going to be disabled or enabled. However, the nxt_conn_io_read() function relied on this information; as a result, in some cases the read timeout wasn't set. Also, the nxt_timer_delete() function did not reliably track whether a timer was added to the work queue. It checked the NXT_TIMER_ENQUEUED state of a timer, but this state could be reset to NXT_TIMER_DISABLED by a nxt_timer_disable() call or another nxt_timer_delete() call. Now, instead of keeping the whole history of the timer's changes, the new implementation updates the timer state immediately, and only one operation is added to the array to add or delete timer in the rbtree according to its final state.
