      [PATCH] remove remaining errno and __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ references · 135ab6ec
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      The last in-kernel user of errno is gone, so we should remove the definition
      and everything referring to it.  This also removes the now-unused lib/execve.c
      file that was introduced earlier.
      
      Also remove every trace of __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ that still remained in the
      kernel.

      [PATCH] maximum latency tracking infrastructure · 5c87579e
      Arjan van de Ven 提交于
      Add infrastructure to track "maximum allowable latency" for power saving
      policies.
      
      The reason for adding this infrastructure is that power management in the
      idle loop needs to make a tradeoff between latency and power savings
      (deeper power save modes have a longer latency to running code again).  The
      code that today makes this tradeoff just does a rather simple algorithm;
      however this is not good enough: There are devices and use cases where a
      lower latency is required than that the higher power saving states provide.
       An example would be audio playback, but another example is the ipw2100
      wireless driver that right now has a very direct and ugly acpi hook to
      disable some higher power states randomly when it gets certain types of
      error.
      
      The proposed solution is to have an interface where drivers can
      
      * announce the maximum latency (in microseconds) that they can deal with
      * modify this latency
      * give up their constraint
      
      and a function where the code that decides on power saving strategy can
      query the current global desired maximum.
      
      This patch has a user of each side: on the consumer side, ACPI is patched
      to use this, on the producer side the ipw2100 driver is patched.
      
      A generic maximum latency is also registered of 2 timer ticks (more and you
      lose accurate time tracking after all).
      
      While the existing users of the patch are x86 specific, the infrastructure
      is not.  I'd like to ask the arch maintainers of other architectures if the
      infrastructure is generic enough for their use (assuming the architecture
      has such a tradeoff as concept at all), and the sound/multimedia driver
      owners to look at the driver facing API to see if this is something they
      can use.
