* printk ratelimiting rewriteDave Young2008-07-251-25/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All ratelimit user use same jiffies and burst params, so some messages (callbacks) will be lost. For example: a call printk_ratelimit(5 * HZ, 1) b call printk_ratelimit(5 * HZ, 1) before the 5*HZ timeout of a, then b will will be supressed. - rewrite __ratelimit, and use a ratelimit_state as parameter. Thanks for hints from andrew. - Add WARN_ON_RATELIMIT, update rcupreempt.h - remove __printk_ratelimit - use __ratelimit in net_ratelimit Signed-off-by: Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> Cc: "David S.

* isolate ratelimit from printk.c for other useDave Young2008-04-291-0/+51
Due to the rcupreempt.h WARN_ON trigged, I got 2G syslog file. For some serious complaining of kernel, we need repeat the warnings, so here I isolate the ratelimit part of printk.c to a standalone file.
