      [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] irq-flags: consolidate flags for request_irq · 6e213616
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      The recent interrupt rework introduced bit value conflicts with sparc.
      Instead of introducing new architecture flags mess, move the interrupt SA_
      flags out of the signal namespace and replace them by interrupt related flags.
      
      This allows to remove the obsolete SA_INTERRUPT flag and clean up the bit
      field values.
      
      This patch:
      
      Move the interrupt related SA_ flags out of linux/signal.h and rename them to
      IRQF_ .  This moves the interrupt related flags out of the signal namespace
      and allows to remove the architecture dependencies.
      
      SA_INTERRUPT is not needed by userspace and glibc so it can be removed safely.
      
      The existing SA_ constants are kept for easy transition and will be
      removed after a 6 month grace period.
