Subject: [RFC][PATCH -mm 0/6] Freezer update
Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2007 22:29:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200707092229.08898.rjw@sisk.pl> (raw)
Hi,
The patches in these series update the freezer to eliminate some existing
shortcomings, so I'd like to get them, or their final versions if some
corrections are necessary, into 2.6.23.
The patches do the following:
* remove sys_sync() from the freezer and make the suspend/hibernation code
invoke it explicitly
* prevent the freezer from sending signals to kernel threads
* increase the verbosity of the freezer slightly
* prevent new tasks from inheriting TIF_FREEZE set from the parents
* make the freezer use the freezing timeout more efficiently
* update the freezer documentation to describe, previously omitted, important
reason for freezing tasks.
The details are in the changelogs.
Comments welcome.
Greetings,
Rafael
