[PATCH] kernel/time.c: add missing symbol exports

2007-04-05T00:35:53Z

This patch adds 2 missing symbol exports: jiffies_to_timeval() and timeval_to_jiffies(). The (not yet merged) dm-raid4-5 module will need them, and they used to be indirectly exported by virtue of being inline functions. Commit 8b9365d753d9870bb6451504c13570b81923228f ("[PATCH] Uninline jiffies.h functions") uninlined them, and thus modules now need them explicitly exported to use them.

[PATCH] Fix multiple conversion bugs in msecs_to_jiffies

2007-02-16T16:13:56Z

Fix multiple conversion bugs in msecs_to_jiffies(). The main problem is that this condition: if (m > jiffies_to_msecs(MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET)) overflows if HZ is smaller than 1000! This change is user-visible: for HZ=250 SUS-compliant poll()-timeout value of -20 is mistakenly converted to 'immediate timeout'. (The new dyntick code also triggered this, that's how we noticed.)

[PATCH] Uninline jiffies.h functions

2007-02-16T16:13:56Z

Fix comments: s/granuality/granularity/

2006-03-31T23:41:22Z

I was grepping through the code and some `grep ganularity -R .` didn't catch what I thought. Then looking closer I saw the term "granuality" used in only four places (in comments) and granularity in many more places describing the same idea. Some other facts: dictionary.com does not know such a word define:granuality on google is not found (and pages for granuality are mostly related to patches to the kernel) it has not been discussed as a term on LKML, AFAICS (=Can Search) To be consistent, I think granularity should be used everywhere.

[PATCH] hrtimers: remove nsec_t typedef

2006-03-26T16:57:03Z

nsec_t predates ktime_t and has mostly been superseded by it. In the few places that are left it's better to make it explicit that we're dealing with 64 bit values here.

[PATCH] remove pps support

2006-03-25T16:23:02Z

This removes the support for pps. It's completely unused within the kernel and is basically in the way for further cleanups. It should be easier to readd proper support for it after the rest has been converted to NTP4 (where the pps mechanisms are quite different from NTP3 anyway).

[PATCH] Normalize timespec for negative values in ns_to_timespec

- In case of a negative nsec value the result of the division must be normalized. - Remove inline from an exported function. Signed-off-by: George Anzinger Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Don't try to "validate" a non-existing timeval.

2006-01-31T18:16:55Z

settime() with a NULL timeval is silly but legal. Noticed by Dave Jones Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
