发明名称 TIMER RINGS HAVING DIFFERENT TIME UNIT GRANULARITIES
摘要 In a processing system, a method includes selecting, at a timer management component of a processor, a timer ring of a set of timer rings for a requested timer based on a time unit granularity associated with the requested timer, wherein each timer ring of the set has a different time unit granularity. The method further includes instantiating the requested timer in a selected entry of the selected timer ring. Instantiating the requested timer may include fixedly maintaining a record for the requested timer in the selected entry of the selected timer ring for the entire time span of the requested timer.
