int slack_hz);

DESCRIPTION¶
Set the amount of time, in jiffies, that a certain timer has in terms of slack. By setting this value, the timer subsystem will schedule the actual timer somewhere between the time mod_timer asks for, and that time plus the slack. By setting the slack to -1, a percentage of the delay is used instead.COPYRIGHT¶
