| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'state' file for a device reports, for example, when the device has failed. Changes should be reported to userspace ASAP without the possibility of blocking on low-memory. sysfs_notify does have that possibility (as it takes a mutex which can be held across a kmalloc) so use sysfs_notify_dirent instead.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we have sysfs_notify_dirent, use it to notify changes to md/array_state. As sysfs_notify_dirent can be called in atomic context, we can remove the delayed notify and the MD_NOTIFY_ARRAY_STATE flag. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

So what happened was that it would simply take the TSO status of the last constituent device. This patch extends it to support both conjunctions and disjunctions under the new name of netdev_increment_features. It also adds a new function netdev_fix_features which does the sanity checking that usually occurs upon registration. This ensures that the computation doesn't result in an illegal combination since this checking is absent when the change is initiated via ethtool. The two users of netdev_compute_features have been converted. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

However there is a missing break statement for the _FP_CLS_COMBINE(FP_CLS_INF,FP_CLS_INF) switch case, the code just falls into _FP_CLS_COMBINE(FP_CLS_ZERO,FP_CLS_ZERO) which then proceeds to overwrite all of the settings.

In doing so I've been using TestFloat to see how good or bad we are doing. For the most part the current math-emu code that PPC uses has a number of issues that the code in include/math-emu seems to solve (plus bugs we've had for ever that no one every realized). Anyways, I've come across a case that we are flagging underflow and inexact because we think we have a denormalized result from a double precision divide: 000.FFFFFFFFFFFFF / 3FE.FFFFFFFFFFFFE soft: 001.0000000000000 ..... syst: 001.0000000000000 ...ux What it looks like is the results out of FP_DIV_D are: D: sign: 0 mantissa: 01000000 00000000 exp: -1023 (0) The problem seems like we aren't normalizing the result and bumping the exp. Now that I'm digging into this a bit I'm thinking my issue has to do with the fix DaveM put in place from back in Aug 2007 (commit 405849610fd96b4f34cd1875c4c033228fea6c0f): [MATH-EMU]: Fix underflow exception reporting. 2) we ended up rounding back up to normal (this is the case where we set the exponent to 1 and set the fraction to zero), this should set inexact too ... Another example, "0x0.0000000000001p-1022 / 16.0", should signal both inexact and underflow. The cpu implementations and ieee1754 literature is very clear about this. This is case #2 above. Here is the distilled glibc test case from Jakub Jelinek which prompted that commit: -------------------- #include <float.h> #include <fenv.h> #include <stdio.h> volatile double d = DBL_MIN; volatile double e = 0x0.0000000000001p-1022; volatile double f = 16.0; int main (void) { printf ("%x\n", fetestexcept (FE_UNDERFLOW)); d /= f; printf ("%x\n", fetestexcept (FE_UNDERFLOW)); e /= f; printf ("%x\n", fetestexcept (FE_UNDERFLOW)); return 0; } -------------------- It looks like the case I have we are exact before rounding, but think it looks like the rounding case since it appears as if "overflow is set". 000.FFFFFFFFFFFFF / 3FE.FFFFFFFFFFFFE = 001.0000000000000 I think the following adds the check for my case and still works for the issue your commit was trying to resolve.

Which is fine, since there is no reason to modify the string and in fact it never is. But they should be marked const to prevent such code from being added, to prevent warnings if -Wwrite-strings is used, when assigned from a constant string other than a string literal (which produces a warning under current kernel compiler flags), and for general good coding practices.

| | * | | | | hrtimer: peek at the timer queue just before going idleArjan van de Ven2008-09-111-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As part of going idle, we already look at the time of the next timer event to determine which C-state to select etc. This patch adds functionality that causes the timers that are past their soft expire time, to fire at this time, before we calculate the next wakeup time. This functionality will thus avoid wakeups by running timers before going idle rather than specially waking up for it. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this patch adds a _range version of hrtimer_start() so that range timers can be created; the hrtimer_start() function is just a wrapper around this. In addition, hrtimer_start_expires() will now preserve existing ranges. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

This is a per process property (so that we can have a "nice" like program to start certain programs with a looser or stricter rounding) that can be set/get via a prctl(). For this purpose, a field called "timer_slack_ns" is added to the task struct. In addition, a field called "default_timer_slack"ns" is added so that tasks easily can temporarily to a more/less accurate slack and then back to the default. The default value of the slack is set to 50 usec; this is significantly less than 2.6.27's average select() and poll() timing error but still allows the kernel to group timers somewhat to preserve power behavior. Applications and admins can override this via the prctl() Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

However, if some other time fires after the soft expire point, the kernel now has the freedom to fire this timer at this point, and thus grouping the events and preventing a power-expensive wakeup in the future.
