Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

+ * CLOCKs: The POSIX standard calls for a couple of clocks and allows us
+ *	    to implement others.  This structure defines the various
+ *	    clocks and allows the possibility of adding others.	 We
+ *	    provide an interface to add clocks to the table and expect
+ *	    the "arch" code to add at least one clock that is high
+ *	    resolution.	 Here we define the standard CLOCK_REALTIME as a
+ *	    1/HZ resolution clock.
+ *
+ * RESOLUTION: Clock resolution is used to round up timer and interval
+ *	    times, NOT to report clock times, which are reported with as
+ *	    much resolution as the system can muster.  In some cases this
+ *	    resolution may depend on the underlying clock hardware and
+ *	    may not be quantifiable until run time, and only then is the
+ *	    necessary code is written.	The standard says we should say
+ *	    something about this issue in the documentation...
+ *
+ * FUNCTIONS: The CLOCKs structure defines possible functions to handle
+ *	    various clock functions.  For clocks that use the standard
+ *	    system timer code these entries should be NULL.  This will
+ *	    allow dispatch without the overhead of indirect function
+ *	    calls.  CLOCKS that depend on other sources (e.g. WWV or GPS)
+ *	    must supply functions here, even if the function just returns
+ *	    ENOSYS.  The standard POSIX timer management code assumes the
+ *	    following: 1.) The k_itimer struct (sched.h) is used for the
+ *	    timer.  2.) The list, it_lock, it_clock, it_id and it_process
+ *	    fields are not modified by timer code.
+ *
+ *          At this time all functions EXCEPT clock_nanosleep can be
+ *          redirected by the CLOCKS structure.  Clock_nanosleep is in
+ *          there, but the code ignores it.
+ *
+ * Permissions: It is assumed that the clock_settime() function defined
+ *	    for each clock will take care of permission checks.	 Some
+ *	    clocks may be set able by any user (i.e. local process
+ *	    clocks) others not.	 Currently the only set able clock we
+ *	    have is CLOCK_REALTIME and its high res counter part, both of
+ *	    which we beg off on and pass to do_sys_settimeofday().

+	 * be set often, it seems ok to take and release the irq lock
+	 * for each timer.  In fact add_timer will do this, so this is
+	 * not an issue.  So we know when we are done, we will move the
+	 * whole list to a new location.  Then as we process each entry,
+	 * we will move it to the actual list again.  This way, when our
+	 * copy is empty, we are done.  We are not all that concerned
+	 * about preemption so we will use a semaphore lock to protect
+	 * aginst reentry.  This way we will not stall another
+	 * processor.  It is possible that this may delay some timers
+	 * that should have expired, given the new clock, but even this
+	 * will be minimal as we will always update to the current time,
+	 * even if it was set by a task that is waiting for entry to
+	 * this code.  Timers that expire too early will be caught by
+	 * the expire code and restarted.
+
+	 * Absolute timers that repeat are left in the abs list while
+	 * waiting for the task to pick up the signal.  This means we
+	 * may find timers that are not in the "add_timer" list, but are
+	 * in the abs list.  We do the same thing for these, save
+	 * putting them back in the "add_timer" list.  (Note, these are
+	 * left in the abs list mainly to indicate that they are
+	 * ABSOLUTE timers, a fact that is used by the re-arm code, and
+	 * for which we have no other flag.)
