      [PATCH] Clean up 'make help' output for documentation targets. · 6fc52f81
      Jesper Juhl 提交于
      Here's a patch that cleans up the "make help" output a bit for the
      documentation targets.
      
      Currently the documentation targets are listed completely different than
      all the other targets :
      
        Documentation targets:
          Linux kernel internal documentation in different formats:
          xmldocs (XML DocBook), psdocs (Postscript), pdfdocs (PDF)
          htmldocs (HTML), mandocs (man pages, use installmandocs to install)
      
      with this patch they are more in line with the rest of the output :
      
        Documentation targets:
         Linux kernel internal documentation in different formats:
          htmldocs        - HTML
          installmandocs  - install man pages generated by mandocs
          mandocs         - man pages
          pdfdocs         - PDF
          psdocs          - Postscript
          xmldocs         - XML DocBook

      [PATCH] x86: Add acpi_user_timer_override option for Asus boards · fa18f477
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Timer overrides are normally disabled on Nvidia board because
      they are commonly wrong, except on new ones with HPET support.
      Unfortunately there are quite some Asus boards around that
      don't have HPET, but need a timer override.
      
      We don't know yet how to handle this transparently,
      but at least add a command line option to force the timer override
      and let them boot.

      [PATCH] sysctl: Undeprecate sys_sysctl · 13bb7e37
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      The basic issue is that despite have been deprecated and warned about as a
      very bad thing in the man pages since its inception there are a few real
      users of sys_sysctl.  It was my assumption that because sysctl had been
      deprecated for all of 2.6 there would be no user space users by this point,
      so I initially gave sys_sysctl a very short deprecation period.
      
      Now that I know there are a few real users the only sane way to proceed
      with deprecation is to push the time limit out to a year or two work and
      work with distributions that have big testing pools like fedora core to
      find these last remaining users.
      
      Which means that the sys_sysctl interface needs to be maintained in the
      meantime.
      
      Since I have provided a technical measure that allows us to add new sysctl
      entries without reserving more binary numbers I believe that is enough to
      fix the sys_sysctl binary interface maintenance problems, because there is
      no longer a need to change the binary interface at all.
      
      Since the sys_sysctl implementation needs to stay around for a while and
      the worst of the maintenance issues that caused us to occasionally break
      the ABI have been addressed I don't see any advantage in continuing with
      the removal of sys_sysctl.
      
      So instead of merely increasing the deprecation period this patch removes
      the deprecation of sys_sysctl and modifies the kernel to compile the code
      in by default.
      
      With committing to maintain sys_sysctl we get all of the advantages of a
      fast interface for anything that needs it.  Currently sys_sysctl is about
      5x faster than /proc/sys, for the same string data.

      [PATCH] A minor fix for set_mb() in Documentation/memory-barriers.txt · 75b2bd55
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      set_mb() is used by set_current_state() which needs mb(), not wmb().  I
      think it would be right to assume that set_mb() implies mb(), all arches
      seem to do just this.

      [MIPS] Fixup migration to GENERIC_TIME · 16b7b2ac
      Atsushi Nemoto 提交于
      Since we already moved to GENERIC_TIME, we should implement alternatives
      of old do_gettimeoffset routines to get sub-jiffies resolution from
      gettimeofday().  This patch includes:
      
       * MIPS clocksource support (based on works by Manish Lachwani).
       * remove unused gettimeoffset routines and related codes.
       * remove unised 64bit do_div64_32().
       * simplify mips_hpt_init. (no argument needed, __init tag)
       * simplify c0_hpt_timer_init. (no need to write to c0_count)
       * remove some hpt_init routines.
       * mips_hpt_mask variable to specify bitmask of hpt value.
       * convert jmr3927_do_gettimeoffset to jmr3927_hpt_read.
       * convert ip27_do_gettimeoffset to ip27_hpt_read.
       * convert bcm1480_do_gettimeoffset to bcm1480_hpt_read.
       * simplify sb1250 hpt functions. (no need to subtract and shift)
