Increasing the maximum to 5 msec will impact the throughput since this call is on the transmit path. > diff --git a/drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wlan.c b/drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wlan.c > index c238969..42da533 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wlan.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wlan.c > @@ -408,7 +408,7 @@ void chip_wakeup(struct wilc *wilc) > wilc->hif_func->hif_write_reg(wilc, 1, reg & ~BIT(1)); > > do { > - usleep_range(2 * 1000, 2 * 1000); > + usleep_range(2 * 1000, 5 * 1000); > wilc_get_chipid(wilc, true); > } while (wilc_get_chipid(wilc, true) == 0); > } while (wilc_get_chipid(wilc, true) == 0); > @@ -423,7 +423,7 @@ void chip_wakeup(struct wilc *wilc) > &clk_status_reg); > > while ((clk_status_reg & 0x1) == 0) { > - usleep_range(2 * 1000, 2 * 1000); > + usleep_range(2 * 1000, 5 * 1000); > > wilc->hif_func->hif_read_reg(wilc, 0xf1, > &clk_status_reg); Thanks, Adham

In any case the min==max case gives you very little if you run a test-case with usleep_range(1000,1000) and a loop with usleep_range(1000,2000) and look at the distribution you will have a hard time seeing any difference. I doubt you would readily see the change from usleep_range(2000,2000) to usleep_range(2000,3000) in benchmarks - maybe (2000,5000) would be visible. My assumption (I have not analyzed it in detail) is that if you have a high re-use of existing timers that the setup of the timer is faster and thats why increasing the range > 0 can actually result in better jitter distribution. thx! hofrat > > diff --git a/drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wlan.c b/drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wlan.c > > index c238969..42da533 100644 > > --- a/drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wlan.c > > +++ b/drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wlan.c > > @@ -408,7 +408,7 @@ void chip_wakeup(struct wilc *wilc) > > wilc->hif_func->hif_write_reg(wilc, 1, reg & ~BIT(1)); > > > > do { > > - usleep_range(2 * 1000, 2 * 1000); > > + usleep_range(2 * 1000, 5 * 1000); > > wilc_get_chipid(wilc, true); > > } while (wilc_get_chipid(wilc, true) == 0); > > } while (wilc_get_chipid(wilc, true) == 0); > > @@ -423,7 +423,7 @@ void chip_wakeup(struct wilc *wilc) > > &clk_status_reg); > > > > while ((clk_status_reg & 0x1) == 0) { > > - usleep_range(2 * 1000, 2 * 1000); > > + usleep_range(2 * 1000, 5 * 1000); > > > > wilc->hif_func->hif_read_reg(wilc, 0xf1, > > &clk_status_reg); > > > Thanks, > > Adham >

usleep_range() is called in non-atomic context so there is little point in setting min==max the jitter of hrtimer is determined by interruptions anyway. usleep_range can only perform the intended coalescence if some room for placing the hrtimer is provided. Given the range of milliseconds the delay will be anything from 2 to a few anyway - so make it 2-5 ms.
