The attached patch optimises d_find_alias() to only take the spinlock if there's anything in the the inode's alias list. If there isn't, it returns NULL immediately. With respect to the superblock sharing patch, this should reduce by one the number of times the dcache_lock is taken by nfs_lookup() for ordinary directory lookups. Only in the case where there's already a dentry for particular directory inode (such as might happen when another mountpoint is rooted at that dentry) will the lock then be taken the extra time.

According to the specification the timevals must be validated and an errorcode -EINVAL returned in case the timevals are not in canonical form. This check was never done in Linux. The pre 2.6.16 code converted invalid timevals silently. Negative timeouts were converted by the timeval_to_jiffies conversion to the maximum timeout. hrtimers and the ktime_t operations expect timevals in canonical form. Otherwise random results might happen on 32 bits machines due to the optimized ktime_add/sub operations. Negative timeouts are treated as already expired. This might break applications which work on pre 2.6.16. To prevent random behaviour and API breakage the timevals are checked and invalid timevals sanitized in a simliar way as the pre 2.6.16 code did. Invalid timevals are reported with a per boot limited number of kernel messages so applications which use this misfeature can be corrected. After a grace period of one year the sanitizing should be replaced by a correct validation check. This is also documented in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt The validation and sanitizing is done inside do_setitimer so all callers (sys_setitimer, compat_sys_setitimer, osf_setitimer) are catched.

alarm() calls the kernel with an unsigend int timeout in seconds. The value is stored in the tv_sec field of a struct timeval to setup the itimer. The tv_sec field of struct timeval is of type long, which causes the tv_sec value to be negative on 32 bit machines if seconds > INT_MAX. Before the hrtimer merge (pre 2.6.16) such a negative value was converted to the maximum jiffies timeout by the timeval_to_jiffies conversion. It's not clear whether this was intended or just happened to be done by the timeval_to_jiffies code. hrtimers expect a timeval in canonical form and treat a negative timeout as already expired. This breaks the legitimate usage of alarm() with a timeout value > INT_MAX seconds. For 32 bit machines it is therefor necessary to limit the internal seconds value to avoid API breakage. Instead of doing this in all implementations of sys_alarm the duplicated sys_alarm code is moved into a common function in itimer.c Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

At present the kernel doesn't honour an attempt to set RLIMIT_CPU to zero seconds. But the spec says it should, and that's what 2.4.x does. Fixing this for real would involve some complexity (such as adding a new it-has-been-set flag to the task_struct, and testing that everwhere, instead of overloading the value of it_prof_expires). Given that a 2.4 kernel won't actually send the signal until one second has expired anyway, let's just handle this case by treating the caller's zero-seconds as one second.

- Whitespace cleanups - Make that expression comprehensible. There's a potential logic change here: we do the "is it_prof_expires equal to zero" test after converting it to seconds, rather than doing the comparison between raw cputime_t's. But given that it's in units of seconds anyway, that shouldn't change anything.
