Sadly, that's not what POSIX says. POSIX says that 'dup' and 'fork' create
two references to the same file description and that O_NONBLOCK is a

I came into this discussion late as I only read LKML in summary form, but
kernel/time/clocksource.c needs struct task_struct on m68k.
Because it uses spin_unlock_irq(), which, on m68k, uses hardirq_count(), which
uses preempt_count(), which needs to dereference struct task_struct, we
have to include sched.h. Because it would cause a loop inclusion, we
cannot include sch

This patch removes PF_NOFREEZE from the rcutorture and RCU-boost threads,
adding try_to_freeze() calls as required. Passes the usual tests, but
I don't have a good freeze test handy as yet.

Error 1 is timeout, which can be caused by many things. Have you tried

The "M" taint flag indicates that a machine check exception has
