Hi, I am Saketh Maddamsetty, a third-year CSE student at IIT Kanpur. I am interested in the project "Tickless NetBSD with high-resolution timers".
I have gone through the project description and have some doubts. Just want to confirm the goals of the project
1) Improve the existing code of software timers with the help of some new data structures to provide high resolution sleeps and other functionalities.
2) Introduce dynamic scheduling of timer interrupt according to the needs of the system.
If I missed any major points or if I am wrong in the problem statement then let me know. Also, it would be great if you could provide some additional explanation regarding the same.
