Run it several times, and you will see cases where the main thread
will measure a process clock difference before and after the nanosleep
which is smaller than the cpu-burner thread's individual thread clock
difference. This doesn't make any sense since the cpu-burner thread
is part of the top-level process's thread group.
I've reproduced this on both x86-64 and sparc64 (using both 32-bit and
64-bit binaries).
The diff of 'process' should always be >= the diff of 'thread'.
I make sure to wrap the 'thread' clock measurements the most tightly
around the nanosleep() call, and that the 'process' clock measurements
are the outer-most ones.
This is due to us using p->se.sum_exec_runtime in
thread_group_cputime() where we iterate the thread group and sum all
data. This does not take time since the last schedule operation (tick
or otherwise) into account. We can cure this by using
task_sched_runtime() at the cost of having to take locks.

use it to program the clock comparator without querying the TOD clock.
clockevents: Add direct ktime programming function
There is at least one architecture (s390) with a sane clockevent device
that can be programmed with the equivalent of a ktime. No need to create
a delta against the current time, the ktime can be used directly.
A new clock device function 'set_next_ktime' is introduced that is called
with the unmodified ktime for the timer if the clock event device has the
CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_KTIME bit set.
clockevents: Make minimum delay adjustments configurable
The automatic increase of the min_delta_ns of a clockevents device
should be done in the clockevents code as the minimum delay is an
attribute of the clockevents device.
In addition not all architectures want the automatic adjustment, on a
massively virtualized system it can happen that the programming of a
clock event fails several times in a row because the virtual cpu has
been rescheduled quickly enough. In that case the minimum delay will
erroneously be increased with no way back. The new config symbol
GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS_MIN_ADJUST is used to enable the automatic
adjustment. The config option is selected only for x86.

exofs: ios: Move to a per inode components & device-table
Exofs raid engine was saving on memory space by having a single layout-info,
single pid, and a single device-table, global to the filesystem. Then passing
a credential and object_id info at the io_state level, private for each
inode. It would also devise this contraption of rotating the device table
view for each inode->ino to spread out the device usage.
This is not compatible with the pnfs-objects standard, demanding that
each inode can have it's own layout-info, device-table, and each object
component it's own pid, oid and creds.
So: Bring exofs raid engine to be usable for generic pnfs-objects use by:
* Define an exofs_comp structure that holds obj_id and credential info.
* Break up exofs_layout struct to an exofs_components structure that holds a
possible array of exofs_comp and the array of devices + the size of the
arrays.
* Add a "comps" parameter to get_io_state() that specifies the ids creds
and device array to use for each IO.
This enables to keep the layout global, but the device-table view, creds
and IDs at the inode level. It only adds two 64bit to each inode, since
some of these members already existed in another form.
* ios raid engine now access layout-info and comps-info through the passed
pointers. Everything is pre-prepared by caller for generic access of
these structures and arrays.
At the exofs Level:
* Super block holds an exofs_components struct that holds the device
array, previously in layout. The devices there are in device-table
order. The device-array is twice bigger and repeats the device-table
twice so now each inode's device array can point to a random device
and have a round-robin view of the table, making it compatible to
previous exofs versions.
* Each inode has an exofs_components struct that is initialized at
load time, with it's own view of the device table IDs and creds.
When doing IO this gets passed to the io_state together with the
layout.
While preforming this change. Bugs where found where credentials with the
wrong IDs where used to access the different SB objects (super.c). As well
as some dead code. It was never noticed because the target we use does not

savagedb: Fix typo causing regression in savage4 series video chip detection
Two additional savage4 variants were added, but the S3_SAVAGE4_SERIES
macro was incompletely modified, resulting in a false positive detection
of a savage4 card regardless of which savage card is actually present.
For non-savage4 series cards, such as a Savage/IX-MV card, this results
in garbled video and/or a hard-hang at boot time. Fix this by changing
an '||' to an '&&' in the S3_SAVAGE4_SERIES macro.

CodingStyle: Document the exception of not splitting user-visible strings, for grepping
Patch reviewers now recommend not splitting long user-visible strings,
such as printk messages, even if they exceed 80 columns. This avoids
breaking grep. However, that recommendation did not actually appear
anywhere in Documentation/CodingStyle.

vfs: show O_CLOEXE bit properly in /proc/<pid>/fdinfo/<fd> files
The CLOEXE bit is magical, and for performance (and semantic) reasons we
don't actually maintain it in the file descriptor itself, but in a
separate bit array. Which means that when we show f_flags, the CLOEXE
status is shown incorrectly: we show the status not as it is now, but as
it was when the file was opened.
Fix that by looking up the bit properly in the 'fdt->close_on_exec' bit
array.
Uli needs this in order to re-implement the pfiles program:
"For normal file descriptors (not sockets) this was the last piece of
information which wasn't available. This is all part of my 'give
Solaris users no reason to not switch' effort. I intend to offer the
code to the util-linux-ng maintainers."

oom_ajd: don't use WARN_ONCE, just use printk_once
WARN_ONCE() is very annoying, in that it shows the stack trace that we
don't care about at all, and also triggers various user-level "kernel
oopsed" logic that we really don't care about. And it's not like the
user can do anything about the applications (sshd) in question, it's a
distro issue.
For ChromiumOS, we use SHA-1 to verify the integrity of the root
filesystem. The speed of the kernel sha-1 implementation has a major
impact on our boot performance.
To improve boot performance, we investigated using the heavily optimized
sha-1 implementation used in git. With the git sha-1 implementation, we
see a 11.7% improvement in boot time.
10 reboots, remove slowest/fastest.
Before:
Mean: 6.58 seconds Stdev: 0.14
After (with git sha-1, this patch):
Mean: 5.89 seconds Stdev: 0.07
The other cool thing about the git SHA-1 implementation is that it only
needs 64 bytes of stack for the workspace while the original kernel
implementation needed 320 bytes.

PM / Runtime: Allow _put_sync() from interrupts-disabled context
Currently the use of pm_runtime_put_sync() is not safe from
interrupts-disabled context because rpm_idle() will release the
spinlock and enable interrupts for the idle callbacks. This enables
interrupts during a time where interrupts were expected to be
disabled, and can have strange side effects on drivers that expected
interrupts to be disabled.
This is not a bug since the documentation clearly states that only
_put_sync_suspend() is safe in IRQ-safe mode.
However, pm_runtime_put_sync() could be made safe when in IRQ-safe
mode by releasing the spinlock but not re-enabling interrupts, which
is what this patch aims to do.
Problem was found when using some buggy drivers that set
pm_runtime_irq_safe() and used _put_sync() in interrupts-disabled
context.

The local variable ret is defined twice in pm_genpd_poweron(), which
causes this function to always return 0, even if the PM domain's
.power_on() callback fails, in which case an error code should be
returned.
Remove the wrong second definition of ret and additionally remove an
unnecessary definition of wait from pm_genpd_poweron().
The AMW0 function in acer-wmi works on Lenovo ideapad S205 for control
the wifi hardware state. We also found there have a 0x78 EC register
exposes the state of wifi hardware switch on the machine.
So, add this patch to support Lenovo ideapad S205 wifi hardware switch
in acer-wmi driver.
When enabling turbo, we need to set both the TDC and TDP bits. IIRC
only the TDC one actually matters, but fix it up anyway since the
current code is confusing.

asus-wmi: Enable autorepeat for hotkey input device
The T101MT Home/Express Gate key autorepeats in hardware, but
sparse-keymap does not support hardware autorepeat. Enable the
input core's software autorepeat to emulate the hardware behavior.
Normal hotkeys are autoreleased, so the behavior of these keys
will not be affected.
eeepc-wmi: Add support for T101MT Home/Express Gate key
This key is different than other hotkeys, having seperate scan
codes for press, release, and hold, so it requires some special
filtering. Press and release events are passed on, and hold events
are ignored since sparse-keymap does not support hardware
autorepeat.
Note that "Home" in the context of this button doesn't mean the
same thing as the usual Home key, and it really isn't clear at
all what is meant by "Home". The manufacurer's description of the
button indicates that it should launch some sort of touch screen
settings interface on short press and apply a desktop rotation on
long press.
