Hi Thomas, As suggested by you (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/14/797), this is the first lot of changes I have. These are all potential bug fixes (Sorry if I haven't read the most obvious code correctly at some place :) ).
Patch 2/5 isn't a bug fix but was required as a dependency for 3/5. Some discussions already happened for 5/5 here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/9/243 https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/9/346 I have tried to mark stable release wherever possible. Viresh Kumar (5): tick-common: fix wrong check in tick_check_replacement() tick-common: don't check tick_oneshot_mode_active() from tick_check_preferred() tick-common: do additional checks in tick_check_preferred() tick-sched: don't call update_wall_time() when delta is lesser than tick_period tick-sched: replace tick_nohz_active with tick_nohz_enabled in tick_nohz_switch_to_nohz() kernel/time/tick-common.c | 29 +++++++++++++++++++---------- kernel/time/tick-sched.c | 34 ++++++++++++++++++---------------- 2 files changed, 37 insertions(+), 26 deletions(-) -- 1.7.12.rc2.18.g61b472e -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
