From 9ca8dbcc65cfc63d6f5ef3312a33184e1d726e00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yunhong Jiang Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2015 12:17:53 -0700 Subject: Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base. It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and the base is: commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

When you +add a magic number to a structure, you should also add it to this +file, since it is best if the magic numbers used by various structures +are unique. + +It is a *very* good idea to protect kernel data structures with magic +numbers. This allows you to check at run time whether (a) a structure +has been clobbered, or (b) you've passed the wrong structure to a +routine. This last is especially useful --- particularly when you are +passing pointers to structures via a void * pointer. The tty code, +for example, does this frequently to pass driver-specific and line +discipline-specific structures back and forth. + +The way to use magic numbers is to declare then at the beginning of +the structure, like so: + +struct tty_ldisc { + int magic; + ... +}; + +Please follow this discipline when you are adding future enhancements +to the kernel! It has saved me countless hours of debugging, +especially in the screwy cases where an array has been overrun and +structures following the array have been overwritten. Using this +discipline, these cases get detected quickly and safely. + + Theodore Ts'o + 31 Mar 94 + +The magic table is current to Linux 2.1.55. + + Michael Chastain + + 22 Sep 1997 + +Now it should be up to date with Linux 2.1.112.

Baranowski + + 29 Jul 1998 + +Updated the magic table to Linux 2.5.45. Right over the feature freeze, +but it is possible that some new magic numbers will sneak into the +kernel before 2.6.x yet. + + Petr Baudis + + 03 Nov 2002 + +Updated the magic table to Linux 2.5.74.
