wangchdo opened a new pull request, #17642:
URL: https://github.com/apache/nuttx/pull/17642

   ## Summary
   
   This is PR is also included in  # 
https://github.com/apache/nuttx/pull/17573, since it focuss on hrtimer 
improvement, and
   hrtimer is a separate module, i submit this PR sepeartely to avoid conflict 
with other PR's improvments on scheduler.
   
   This PR refined hrtimer's state machine to allow ARMED and RUNNING hrtimer 
to be restarted and fix corner case issues in SMP mode, 
   
   The new state-machine of hrtimer will be as below, it is also included in 
the documentation of the hrtimer module:

   ## Impact
   
   Improments for the hrtimer module
   
   ## Testing
   
   **Test 1 passed (integrated in ostest):**
   
   **- test implementation:**
   
   ```
