Hello... I'm reading the code of the "hrtimer" [1] in order to use them in something I've been programming lately. I read the tutorial in [2] and [3] about them, but it seems that the code has changed a little since when it was written. Thus, I have two questions: 1 - How can I know what CPU is handling a timer interruption (while inside of the interruption function)? Is it possible to a timer be started by a core and have its interruption handled by another core? (if the answer is "no", then I could just make sure I know what is the core starting the timer) 2 - In [2] it is said that there is a "void *data" pointer in the hrtimer API. The code changed in newer kernel versions and I didn't find such a pointer anymore. Supposing there is still such a pointer, what would be the "equivalent" of the "void *data" pointer there? I mean: is there still a way to pass some data to the hrtimer callback function? If the answer is "yes", then how? Thanks for your attention...
