The patch titled arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c: use time_* macros has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was arch-alpha-kernel-trapsc-use-time_-macros.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: arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c: use time_* macros From: S.Caglar Onur <caglar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The functions time_before, time_before_eq, time_after, and time_after_eq are more robust for comparing jiffies against other values. So implement usage of the time_after() macro, defined in linux/jiffies.h, which deals with wrapping correctly [akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: fix warning] Signed-off-by: S.Caglar Onur <caglar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Richard Henderson <rth@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Ivan Kokshaysky <ink@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff -puN arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c~arch-alpha-kernel-trapsc-use-time_-macros arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c --- a/arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c~arch-alpha-kernel-trapsc-use-time_-macros +++ a/arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c @@ -8,6 +8,7 @@ * This file initializes the trap entry points */ +#include <linux/jiffies.h> #include <linux/mm.h> #include <linux/sched.h> #include <linux/tty.h> @@ -770,7 +771,7 @@ do_entUnaUser(void __user * va, unsigned unsigned long reg, struct pt_regs *regs) { static int cnt = 0; - static long last_time = 0; + static unsigned long last_time; unsigned long tmp1, tmp2, tmp3, tmp4; unsigned long fake_reg, *reg_addr = &fake_reg; @@ -781,7 +782,7 @@ do_entUnaUser(void __user * va, unsigned with the unaliged access. */ if (!test_thread_flag (TIF_UAC_NOPRINT)) { - if (cnt >= 5 && jiffies - last_time > 5*HZ) { + if (cnt >= 5 && time_after(jiffies, last_time + 5 * HZ)) { cnt = 0; } if (++cnt < 5) { _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from caglar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx are origin.patch arch-parisc-kernel-unalignedc-use-time_-macros.patch fs-binfmt_aoutc-use-printk_ratelimit.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
