[PATCH] NTP: ntp-helper functions

2005-09-07T23:57:34+00:00

This patch cleans up a commonly repeated set of changes to the NTP state
variables by adding two helper inline functions:

ntp_clear(): Clears the ntp state variables

ntp_synced(): Returns 1 if the system is synced with a time server.

This was compile tested for alpha, arm, i386, x86-64, ppc64, s390, sparc,
sparc64.

[PATCH] convert signal handling of NODEFER to act like other Unix boxes.

2005-08-29T17:03:11+00:00

It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is
not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it.  I've written a
program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had
several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes,
confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled.

The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows:

1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked.

2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is
still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_
NetBSD 2.0 *).

The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux:

1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of
sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this).

2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being
handled is not blocked.

The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to
the way most Unix boxes work.

Unix boxes that were tested:  DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU
3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX.

* NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The
main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like
Linux.  So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that
behaves differently here with #2.

[PATCH] Don't export machine_restart, machine_halt, or machine_power_off.

2005-07-26T21:35:42+00:00

machine_restart, machine_halt and machine_power_off are machine
specific hooks deep into the reboot logic, that modules
have no business messing with.  Usually code should be calling
kernel_restart, kernel_halt, kernel_power_off, or
emergency_restart. So don't export machine_restart,
machine_halt, and machine_power_off so we can catch buggy users.

[PATCH] convert that currently tests _NSIG directly to use valid_signal()

2005-05-01T15:59:14+00:00

Convert most of the current code that uses _NSIG directly to instead use
valid_signal().  This avoids gcc -W warnings and off-by-one errors.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36+00:00

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
