Subject: [PATCH 0/7] 3.4-stable: Fix for leapsecond caused hrtimer/futex issue
Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2012 02:39:49 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1342507196-54327-1-git-send-email-johnstul@us.ibm.com> (raw)

Here is backport of the leapsecond fixes to 3.4-stable. These are very
straight forward, and backported to 3.4.x with no collisions or changes.

This patchset resolve the early hrtimer/futex expiration issue
widely seen after the June 30th leapsecond.

I've booted and tested this patchset on two boxes and run through a number
of leapsecond related stress tests. However, additional testing and review
would be appreciated.

The original commits backported in this set are:

f55a6faa384304c89cfef162768e88374d3312cb    hrtimer: Provide clock_was_set_delayed()
4873fa070ae84a4115f0b3c9dfabc224f1bc7c51    timekeeping: Fix leapsecond triggered load spike issue
5b9fe759a678e05be4937ddf03d50e950207c1c0    timekeeping: Maintain ktime_t based offsets for hrtimers
196951e91262fccda81147d2bcf7fdab08668b40    hrtimers: Move lock held region in hrtimer_interrupt()
f6c06abfb3972ad4914cef57d8348fcb2932bc3b    timekeeping: Provide hrtimer update function
5baefd6d84163443215f4a99f6a20f054ef11236    hrtimer: Update hrtimer base offsets each hrtimer_interrupt
3e997130bd2e8c6f5aaa49d6e3161d4d29b43ab0    timekeeping: Add missing update call in timekeeping_resume()


I've already done backports to all the stable kernels to 2.6.32, 
and will be sending them out shortly.

Please let me know if you have any comments or feedback. 

thanks
