The patch titled drivers/char/keyboard.c: use time_before, time_before_eq, etc has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was drivers-char-keyboardc-use-time_before-time_before_eq-etc.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: drivers/char/keyboard.c: use time_before, time_before_eq, etc From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> The functions time_before, time_before_eq, time_after, and time_after_eq are more robust for comparing jiffies against other values. A simplified version of the semantic patch making this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @ change_compare_np @ expression E; @@ ( - jiffies <= E + time_before_eq(jiffies,E) | - jiffies >= E + time_after_eq(jiffies,E) | - jiffies < E + time_before(jiffies,E) | - jiffies > E + time_after(jiffies,E) ) @ include depends on change_compare_np @ @@ #include <linux/jiffies.h> @ no_include depends on !include && change_compare_np @ @@ #include <linux/...> + #include <linux/jiffies.h> // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> Cc: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/char/keyboard.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff -puN drivers/char/keyboard.c~drivers-char-keyboardc-use-time_before-time_before_eq-etc drivers/char/keyboard.c --- a/drivers/char/keyboard.c~drivers-char-keyboardc-use-time_before-time_before_eq-etc +++ a/drivers/char/keyboard.c @@ -42,6 +42,7 @@ #include <linux/input.h> #include <linux/reboot.h> #include <linux/notifier.h> +#include <linux/jiffies.h> extern void ctrl_alt_del(void); @@ -928,7 +929,8 @@ static void k_brl(struct vc_data *vc, un if (up_flag) { if (brl_timeout) { if (!committing || - jiffies - releasestart > (brl_timeout * HZ) / 1000) { + time_after(jiffies, + releasestart + (brl_timeout*HZ)/1000)) { committing = pressed; releasestart = jiffies; } _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from julia@xxxxxxx are origin.patch drivers-scsi-use-time_before-time_before_eq-etc.patch fs-affs-filec-use-bug_on.patch drivers-misc-elide-a-non-zero-test-on-a-result-that-is-never-0.patch serial-use-time_before-time_before_eq-etc.patch drivers-char-rtcc-use-time_before-time_before_eq-etc.patch fbdev-use-div_round_up-or-roundup.patch drivers-md-use-time_before-time_before_eq-etc.patch drivers-md-use-time_before-time_before_eq-etc-checkpatch-fixes.patch fs-ext2-use-bug_on.patch fs-ext3-use-bug_on.patch fs-ext4-use-bug_on.patch drivers-char-ds1286c-use-time_before-time_before_eq-etc.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
