      [PATCH] vmscan: remove duplicate increment of reclaim_in_progress · 072eaa5d
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      shrink_zone() already increments reclaim_in_progress.  No need to do it in
      balance_pgdat.

      [PATCH] zone reclaim: do not check references to a page during zone reclaim · 80e43426
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      shrink_list() and refill_inactive() check all ptes pointing to a page for
      reference bits in order to decide if the page should be put on the active
      list.  This is not necessary for zone_reclaim since we are only interested
      in removing unmapped pages.  Skip the checks in both functions.

      [PATCH] select: fix returned timeval · 643a6545
      Andrew Morton 提交于
      With David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
      
      select() presently has a habit of increasing the value of the user's
      `timeout' argument on return.
      
      We were writing back a timeout larger than the original.  We _deliberately_
      round up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks
      us to.
      
      The patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of
      timespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and
      select functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which
      was passed in.
      
      The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new
      timeout value to the old one and was returning that.  It should just return
      the new timeout value.
      
      (We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in
      time.h.  But this code open-codes it all).

      [PATCH] x86-64: Fix HPET timer on x460 · 33042a9f
      Chris McDermott 提交于
      [description from AK]
      
      The IBM Summit 3 chipset doesn't implement the HPET timer replacement
      option.  Since the current Linux code relies on it use a mixed mode with
      both PIT for the interrupt and HPET counters for the time keeping.  That
      was already implemented, but didn't work properly because it was still
      using the last interrupt offset in HPET.  This resulted in x460 not
      booting.  Fix this up by using the free running HPET counter.
      
      Shouldn't affect any other machine because they either use full HPET mode
      or no HPET at all.
      
      TBD needs a similar 32bit fix.

      [PATCH] fstatat64 support · cff2b760
      Ulrich Drepper 提交于
      The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I
      used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline.  The result is that
      on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement
      fstatat64.
      
      This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if
      __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined.  I renamed the syscall entry point to make
      this clear.  Other archs will continue to use the existing code.  On x86-64
      the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function.  this is what
      is done for the other stat syscalls as well.
      
      This patch might break some other archs (those which define
      __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall).  Yet others
      might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode.  I really don't
      want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in
      glibc, but the kernel is also affected).  It should be done by the arch
      maintainers.  I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly.  Those who are
      eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed).
      
      The patch below has been tested on x86 and x86-64.
