       del_timer deactivates a timer - this works on both active and inactive timers.

NAME

       struct_hrtimer - the basic hrtimer structure

SYNOPSIS

       struct hrtimer {
	 struct rb_node node;
	 ktime_t _expires;
	 ktime_t _softexpires;
	 enum hrtimer_restart	     (* function) (struct hrtimer *);
	 struct hrtimer_clock_base * base;
	 unsigned long state;
       #ifdef CONFIG_TIMER_STATS
	 int start_pid;
	 void * start_site;
	 char start_comm[16];
       #endif
       };

MEMBERS

       node
	   red black tree node for time ordered insertion

       _expires
	   the absolute expiry time in the hrtimers internal representation. The time is related to the clock on which the timer is based. Is
	   setup by adding slack to the _softexpires value. For non range timers identical to _softexpires.

       _softexpires
	   the absolute earliest expiry time of the hrtimer. The time which was given as expiry time when the timer was armed.

       function
	   timer expiry callback function

       base
	   pointer to the timer base (per cpu and per clock)

       state
	   state information (See bit values above)

       start_pid
	   timer statistics field to store the pid of the task which started the timer

       start_site
	   timer statistics field to store the site where the timer was started

       start_comm[16]
	   timer statistics field to store the name of the process which started the timer

DESCRIPTION

       The hrtimer structure must be initialized by hrtimer_init
