Subject: [patch 08/37] uml: fix unreasonably long udelay
Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2007 14:04:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070330210419.GJ29450@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070330210334.GA29450@kroah.com>

[-- Attachment #1: uml-fix-unreasonably-long-udelay.patch --]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: "Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso" <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

Currently we have a confused udelay implementation.

* __const_udelay does not accept usecs but xloops in i386 and x86_64
* our implementation requires usecs as arg
* it gets a xloops count when called by asm/arch/delay.h

Bugs related to this (extremely long shutdown times) where reported by some
x86_64 users, especially using Device Mapper.

To hit this bug, a compile-time constant time parameter must be passed - that's
why UML seems to work most times.
Fix this with a simple udelay implementation.
