Subject: Re: asm-{alpha,h8300,um,v850,xtensa}/param.h: unbreak HZ for userspace
Date: Wed, 14 May 2008 13:05:31 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080514110531.GA11775@stro.at> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200805100836.48046.vapier@gentoo.org>
could we please get an ack or nack on that patch.
checked linux-next and it doesn't appear there.
without it currently perl 5.10 doesn't build on alpha:
perl.c: In function 'perl_construct':
perl.c:388: error: 'CONFIG_HZ' undeclared (first use in this function)
-> http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=perl;ver=5.10.0-10;arch=alpha;stamp=1210252894

I noticed this because alpha was broken due to the recent bdc807871d58285737.
Most arches do something like this in their asm/param.h:
#ifdef __KERNEL__
# define HZ CONFIG_HZ
#else
# define HZ 100
#endif
A few arches though (namely alpha/h8300/um/v850/xtensa) either do no set HZ at
all for !__KERNEL__, or they set it wrongly. This should bring all arches in
line by setting up HZ for userspace.
