We want to be able to control the default "rounding" that is used by select() and poll() and friends. This is a per process property (so that we can have a "nice" like program to start certain programs with a looser or stricter rounding) that can be set/get via a prctl(). For this purpose, a field called "timer_slack_ns" is added to the task struct. In addition, a field called "default_timer_slack"ns" is added so that tasks easily can temporarily to a more/less accurate slack and then back to the default. The default value of the slack is set to 50 usec; this is significantly less than 2.6.27's average select() and poll() timing error but still allows the kernel to group timers somewhat to preserve power behavior. Applications and admins can override this via the prctl() Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>
