The \"clockid\"\nparameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.\n\nThe timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally\nretrieving the previous expiration time (in case the \"otmr\" parameter is not\nNULL).\n\nThe time value specified in \"utmr\" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit\nis set in the \"flags\" parameter. Otherwise it\u0027s a relative time.\n\nThe timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or\n{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.\n\nLike the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are\nsupported (with the same interface).

They are required\nbecause some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS\nfor example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace\nautomatically where the arch supports it.\n\nProblems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode\nnumber returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and\nfailing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and\nso overlaps occur.\n\nThis patch:\n\nMake filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit\ninode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace.\n\nThe stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where\navailable and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode\nnumber supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then\nerror EOVERFLOW will be issued.\n\nSimilarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode\nnumber to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a\ndirectory entry is encountered that can\u0027t be properly represented.\n\nNote that this means that some inodes will not be stat\u0027able on a 32-bit\nsystem with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that\nthere will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to.\n\nNote similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a\n32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the\nsame reasons.\n\nIt is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc\nuses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions\nexclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter\nunrepresentable inode numbers anyway.\n\n[akpm: alpha build fix]\nSigned-off-by: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Trond Myklebust \u003ctrond.myklebust@fys.uio.no\u003e\nCc: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "3f2e05e90e0846c42626e3d272454f26be34a1bc", "tree": "8a1701fcb7cde32373b6d7ceca09376416bf94eb", "parents": [ "9ec52099e4b8678a60e9f93e41ad87885d64f3e6" ], "author": { "name": "David Howells", "email": "dhowells@redhat.com", "time": "Mon Oct 02 14:12:31 2006 +0100" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Mon Oct 02 08:03:31 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] BLOCK: Revert patch to hack around undeclared sigset_t in linux/compat.h\n\nRevert Andrew Morton\u0027s patch to temporarily hack around the lack of a\ndeclaration of sigset_t in linux/compat.h to make the block-disablement\npatches build on IA64.
