[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 2

2007-02-12T17:48:44Z

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

[PATCH] CRIS: local_irq_disable() is redundant after local_irq_save()

2007-02-11T18:51:20Z

arch/cris/arch-v10/kernel/time.c::get_ns_in_jiffie() contains local_irq_disable() call after local_irq_save(). This looks redundant. arch/cris/kernel/time.c::do_gettimeofday() contains local_irq_disable() call after local_irq_save(). This looks redundant.

[PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() calls

2006-12-13T17:05:58Z

Run this: #!/bin/sh for f in $(grep -Erl "$[^$]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do echo "De-casting $f..." perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?$[^$]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f done And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers to non-pointers. And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

[PATCH] namespaces: utsname: use init_utsname when appropriate

2006-10-02T14:57:21Z

In some places, particularly drivers and __init code, the init utsns is the appropriate one to use. This patch replaces those with a the init_utsname helper. Changes: Removed several uses of init_utsname(). Hope I picked all the right ones in net/ipv4/ipconfig.c. These are now changed to utsname() (the per-process namespace utsname) in the previous patch (2/7) [akpm@osdl.org: CIFS fix] Signed-off-by: Serge E. Hallyn Cc: Kirill Korotaev Cc: "Eric W.

[PATCH] kill wall_jiffies

2006-10-01T07:39:27Z

With 2.6.18-rc4-mm2, now wall_jiffies will always be the same as jiffies. So we can kill wall_jiffies completely. This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1". This condition is never met so I suppose it is just a bug. I just remove that condition only instead of kill the whole "if" block.

[PATCH] tty: Remove include of screen_info.h from tty.h

2006-07-10T20:24:16Z

screen_info.h doesn't have anything to do with the tty layer and shouldn't be included by tty.h. This patches removes the include and modifies all users to directly include screen_info.h. struct screen_info is mainly used to communicate with the console drivers in drivers/video/console. Note that this patch touches every arch and I have no way of testing it. If there is a mistake the worst thing that will happen is a compile error.
