ntp: support for TAI

2008-05-01T15:03:59+00:00

This adds support for setting the TAI value (International Atomic Time).  The
value is reported back to userspace via timex (as we don't have a
ntp_gettime() syscall).

timerfd: new timerfd API

2008-02-05T17:44:07+00:00

This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch:

int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags);
int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags,
		    const struct itimerspec *utmr,
		    struct itimerspec *otmr);
int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr);

The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd.  The "clockid"
parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.

The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally
retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not
NULL).

The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit
is set in the "flags" parameter.  Otherwise it's a relative time.

The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or
{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.

Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are
supported (with the same interface).  Here's a simple test program I used to
exercise the new timerfd APIs:

x86: compat_sys_ptrace

2008-01-30T12:31:48+00:00

This adds a generic definition of compat_sys_ptrace that calls
compat_arch_ptrace, parallel to sys_ptrace/arch_ptrace.  Some
machines needing this already define a function by that name.
The new generic function is defined only on machines that
put #define __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_PTRACE into asm/ptrace.h.

x86: compat_ptrace_request

2008-01-30T12:31:47+00:00

This adds a compat_ptrace_request that is the analogue of ptrace_request
for the things that 32-on-64 ptrace implementations can share in common.
So far there are just a couple of requests handled generically.
