- Harden the user space controllable hrtimer interfaces further to
protect against unpriviledged DoS attempts by arming timers in the past.
- Add per-capacity hierarchies to the timer migration code to prevent
timer migration accross different capacity domains. This code has been
disabled last minute as there is a pathological problem with SoCs which
advertise a larger number of capacity domains. The problem is under
investigation and the code won't be active before v7.3, but that turned
out to be less intrusive than a full revert as it preserves the
preparatory steps and allows people to work on the final resolution
- Export time namespace functionality as a recent user can be built as a
module.
- Initialize the jiffies clocksource before using it. The recent
hardening against time moving backward requires that the related
members of struct clocksource have been initialized, otherwise it
clamps the readout to 0, which makes time stand sill and causes boot
delays.
- Fix a more than twenty year old PID reference count leak in an error
path of the POSIX CPU timer code.
- The usual small fixes, improvements and cleanups all over the place.
