Two fixes for the timer wheel:
- A timer which is already expired at enqueue time can set the base->next_expiry value backwards. As a consequence base->clk can be set back as well. This can lead to timers expiring early. Add a sanity check to prevent this. - When a timer is queued with an expiry time beyond the wheel capacity then it should be queued in the bucket of the last wheel level which is expiring last. The code adjusts expiry time to the maximum wheel capacity, which is only correct when the wheel clock is 0. Aside of that the check whether the delta is larger than wheel capacity does not check the delta, it checks the expiry value itself. As a result timers can expire at random. Fix this by checking the right variable and adjust expiry time so it becomes base->clock plus capacity which places it into the outmost bucket in the last wheel level. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAl8URRQTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoQVMD/0VMkT36A8SKbPudMLZ5REp63E629wQ yuGJz9IJPE1NYB25PXL0TmVAQpseXKDKh3eSP2ac6Ao1FTUk/He/CwF2tsGvu+tm kxpuPQgeUF8BeF7WzE21k4NeAmTv8eaIxirQPRQBRJldHuNG9u0l1u8dr0rT2mQG N0djinQvM4bRUVa10l4dz6gE2F0Egjv5sIZohv3E6ORwisJxJoZUUFMlqfuS+2Xt lOebR8juJahIDRM3ihhZfXJI2tCPD/FnrcMWbk1z3NbsE6C2MiG4ncrjxR2MY81Q zRr3CrN6TgjTUkvSMOP1SuFePEKLc/2rl5dg9EcGEFNOyggPEezSB/sL1HavRsV9 2s/hmLB6VR5GQwhMnhbLTq3jAI9M9P1S4VEoKHlDs8LoCxtQ+g+2IKmSVqKWXFuO 6AscBbNQkEbrkTx+OkbHWYc7+RLQE87ryCNODeETzSwE0H3NLk/GRQirq6LO9ESq AjVg5085YZXEIzistsSON0aTdY0eIIVsmaYmFOI0qNPnSUCOPlHIXwD+ju1WEW4h QtM6BW6xggydgSLgOWQQzKpgBfLW3j7F4r7cFsNCjaQ7UtDQMPMMm+ATBpoT8vdA EHR/FC4U8ABiXpnleh87B1WCpQr6p6qo95eIbe5UxY3yPdPb32s1/+ycFngW9XPj B4353TQp7aNRUw== =aCiv -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
