Following the deprecation schedule the a.out ELF interpreter support is removed now with this patch. a.out ELF interpreters were an transition feature for moving a.out systems to ELF, but they're unlikely to be still needed. Pure a.out systems will still work of course. This allows to simplify the hairy ELF loader.

The proper behavior to store task's pid and get this task later is to get the struct pid pointer and get the task with the pid_task() call. Make it for rt_mutex_waiter->deadlock_task_pid field.

All the functions that need to lookup a task by pid in posix timers obtain this pid from a user space, and thus this value refers to a task in the same namespace, as the current task lives in. So the proper behavior is to call find_task_by_vpid() here. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Cc: "Eric W.

Add a new s_options field to struct super_block. Filesystems can save mount options passed to them in mount or remount. It is automatically freed when the superblock is destroyed. A new helper function, generic_show_options() is introduced, which uses this field to display the mount options in /proc/mounts. Another helper function, save_mount_options() may be used by filesystems to save the options in the super block.

This series addresses the problem of showing mount options in /proc/mounts. Several filesystems which use mount options, have not implemented a .show_options superblock operation. Several others have implemented this callback, but have not kept it fully up to date with the parsed options. Q: Why do we need correct option showing in /proc/mounts? A: We want /proc/mounts to fully replace /etc/mtab. The reasons for this are: - unprivileged mounters won't be able to update /etc/mtab - /etc/mtab doesn't work with private mount namespaces - /etc/mtab can become out-of-sync with reality Q: Can't this be done, so that filesystems need not bother with implementing a .show_mounts callback, and keeping it up to date? A: Only in some cases. Certain filesystems allow modification of a subset of options in their remount_fs method. It is not possible to take this into account without knowing exactly how the filesystem handles options. For the simple case (no remount or remount resets all options) the patchset introduces two helpers: generic_show_options() save_mount_options() These can also be used to emulate the old /etc/mtab behavior, until proper support is added. Even if this is not 100% correct, it's still better than showing no options at all.

Per previous discussions about cleaning up ufs_fs.h, people just want this straight up dropped from userspace export. The only remaining consumer (silo) has been fixed a while ago to not rely on this header. This allows use to move it completely from include/linux/ to fs/ufs/ seeing as how the only in-kernel consumer is fs/ufs/.

When the conversion factor between jiffies and milli- or microseconds is not a single multiply or divide, as for the case of HZ == 300, we currently do a multiply followed by a divide. The intervening result, however, is subject to overflows, especially since the fraction is not simplified (for HZ == 300, we multiply by 300 and divide by 1000). This is exposed to the user when passing a large timeout to poll(), for example. This patch replaces the multiply-divide with a reciprocal multiplication on 32-bit platforms. When the input is an unsigned long, there is no portable way to do this on 64-bit platforms there is no portable way to do this since it requires a 128-bit intermediate result (which gcc does support on 64-bit platforms but may generate libgcc calls, e.g. on 64-bit s390), but since the output is a 32-bit integer in the cases affected, just simplify the multiply-divide (*3/10 instead of *300/1000). The reciprocal multiply used can have off-by-one errors in the upper half of the valid output range. This could be avoided at the expense of having to deal with a potential 65-bit intermediate result. Since the intent is to avoid overflow problems and most of the other time conversions are only semiexact, the off-by-one errors were considered an acceptable tradeoff. At Ralf Baechle's suggestion, this version uses a Perl script to compute the necessary constants. We already have dependencies on Perl for kernel compiles. This does, however, require the Perl module Math::BigInt, which is included in the standard Perl distribution starting with version 5.8.0. In order to support older versions of Perl, include a table of canned constants in the script itself, and structure the script so that Math::BigInt isn't required if pulling values from said table. Running the script requires that the HZ value is available from the Makefile. Thus, this patch also adds the Kconfig variable CONFIG_HZ to the architectures which didn't already have it (alpha, cris, frv, h8300, m32r, m68k, m68knommu, sparc, v850, and xtensa.) It does *not* touch the sh or sh64 architectures, since Paul Mundt has dealt with those separately in the sh tree. Signed-off-by: H.

This is a LED driver using the PWM on newer SOCs from Atmel; brightness is controlled by changing the PWM duty cycle. So for example if you've set up two leds labeled "pwm0" and "pwm1": echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness # off (0%) echo 80 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness # on (100%) Note that "brightness" here isn't linear; maybe that should change. Going from 4 to 8 probably doubles perceived brightness, while 244 to 248 is imperceptible. This is mostly intended to be a simple example of PWM, although it's realistic since LCD backlights are often driven with PWM to conserve battery power (and offer brightness options).
