  • 8b88b0998   libfs: allow error return from simple attributes ... Browse Code »

    Sometimes simple attributes might need to return an error, e.g. for
    acquiring a mutex interruptibly. In fact we have that situation in
    spufs already which is the original user of the simple attributes. This
    patch merged the temporarily forked attributes in spufs back into the
    main ones and allows to return errors.

  • 13b54a505   [AVR32] Enable debugging only when needed ... Browse Code »

    Keep track of processes being debugged (including the kernel itself)
    and turn the OCD system on and off as appropriate. Since enabling
    debugging turns off some optimizations in the CPU core, this fixes the
    issue that enabling KProbes support or simply running a program under
    gdbserver will reduce system performance significantly until the next
    reboot.

    The CPU performance will still be reduced for all processes while a
    process is being debugged, but this is a lot better than reducing the
    performance forever.
