HRTIMER_FORWARD(9)                        Driver Basics                        HRTIMER_FORWARD(9)



NAME
       hrtimer_forward - forward the timer expiry

SYNOPSIS
       u64 hrtimer_forward(struct hrtimer * timer, ktime_t now, ktime_t interval);

ARGUMENTS
       timer
           hrtimer to forward

       now
           forward past this time

       interval
           the interval to forward

DESCRIPTION
       Forward the timer expiry so it will expire in the future. Returns the number of overruns.

       Can be safely called from the callback function of timer. If called from other contexts
       timer must neither be enqueued nor running the callback and the caller needs to take care
       of serialization.

NOTE
       This only updates the timer expiry value and does not requeue the timer.
