CLONE_SIGHAND | CLONE_VM). But if sigaltstack is set by a\nparent thread, and then if multiple cloned child threads (+ parent threads)\ncall signal handler at the same time, some threads may be conflicted -\nbecause they share to use the same alternative signal stack region.\nFinally they get sigsegv.

This behavior follows the SUSv3 specification.\nIn SUSv3, pthread_create() says \"The alternate stack shall not be inherited\n(when new threads are initialized)\".

PowerPC is now using a lockless\ndo_gettimeofday based on reading the timebase register and performing\nsome simple arithmetic. (This method of getting the time is also\nexported to userspace via the VDSO.) However, the factor and offset\nit uses were calculated based on the nominal tick length and weren\u0027t\nbeing adjusted when NTP varied the tick length.\n\nNote that 64-bit powerpc has had the lockless do_gettimeofday for a\nlong time now. It also had an extremely hairy routine that got called\nfrom the 32-bit compat routine for adjtimex, which adjusted the\nfactor and offset according to what it thought the timekeeping code\nwas going to do. Not only was this only called if a 32-bit task did\nadjtimex (i.e. not if a 64-bit task did adjtimex), it was also\nduplicating computations from kernel/timer.c and it wasn\u0027t clear that\nit was (still) correct.\n\nThe simple solution is to ask the timekeeping code how long the\ncurrent jiffy will be on each timer interrupt, after calling\ndo_timer. If this jiffy will be a different length from the last one,\nwe then need to compute new values for the factor and offset used in\nthe lockless do_gettimeofday. In this way we can keep xtime and\ndo_gettimeofday in sync, even when NTP is varying the tick length.\n\nNote that when adjtimex varies the tick length, it almost always\nintroduces the variation from the next tick on. The only case I could\nsee where adjtimex would vary the length of the current tick is when\nan old-style adjtime adjustment is being cancelled. (It\u0027s not clear\nto me why the adjustment has to be cancelled immediately rather than\nfrom the next tick on.) Thus I don\u0027t see any real need for a hook in\nadjtimex; the rare case of an old-style adjustment being cancelled can\nbe fixed up at the next tick.\n\nSigned-off-by: Paul Mackerras \u003cpaulus@samba.org\u003e\nAcked-by: john stultz \u003cjohnstul@us.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "a62eaf151d9cb478d127cfbc2e93c498869785b0", "tree": "b13d62257ada7e0a9d37fdc9a69a7afa6f028b30", "parents": [ "99019e919969be88e7e4042f3afa296bd55ad9ec" ], "author": { "name": "Andi Kleen", "email": "ak@suse.de", "time": "Thu Feb 16 23:41:58 2006 +0100" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Fri Feb 17 08:00:40 2006 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] x86_64: Add boot option to disable randomized mappings and cleanup\n\nAMD SimNow!\u0027s JIT doesn\u0027t like them at all in the guest.
