mmtimer: add member name to the miscdevice declaration

2017-01-10T20:46:41Z

Since the struct miscdevice have many members, it is dangerous to init it without members name relying only on member order. This patch add member name to the init declaration. Signed-off-by: Corentin Labbe Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Replace with globally

2016-12-24T19:46:01Z

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al: PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*' sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \ $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h) to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

drivers/char/mmtimer.c: Remove useless kfree

2012-09-26T20:20:40Z

Remove useless kfree() and clean up code related to the removal. The semantic patch that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @r exists@ position p1,p2; expression x; @@ if (x@p1 == NULL) { ... kfree@p2(x); ... return ...; } @unchanged exists@ position r.p1,r.p2; expression e <= r.x,x,e1; iterator I; statement S; @@ if (x@p1 == NULL) { ... when != I(x,...)

posix-timers: Cleanup namespace

2011-02-02T14:28:19Z

Rename register_posix_clock() to posix_timers_register_clock(). That's what the function really does. As a side effect this cleans up the posix_clock namespace for the upcoming dynamic posix_clock infrastructure.

posix-timers: Remove useless res field from k_clock

2011-02-02T14:28:15Z

The res member of kclock is only used by mmtimer.c, but even there it contains redundant information. Remove the field and fixup mmtimer. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Acked-by: John Stultz Tested-by: Richard Cochran LKML-Reference: <20110201134418.808714587@linutronix.de>

time: Correct the settime parameters

2011-02-02T14:28:11Z

Both settimeofday() and clock_settime() promise with a 'const' attribute not to alter the arguments passed in. This patch adds the missing 'const' attribute into the various kernel functions implementing these calls.

SGI Altix IA64 mmtimer: eliminate long interval timer holdoffs

2010-10-28T01:03:14Z

This patch for SGI Altix/IA64 eliminates interval long timer holdoffs in cases where we don't start an interval timer before the expiration time. This sometimes happens when a number of interval timers on the same shub with the same interval run simultaneously.
