As Tsukada explains, the time_is_before_jiffies(acct->needcheck) check is very wrong, we need time_is_after_jiffies() to make sys_acct() work. Ignoring the overflows, the code should "goto out" if needcheck > jiffies, while currently it checks "needcheck < jiffies" and thus in the likely case check_free_space() does nothing until jiffies overflow. In particular this means that sys_acct() is simply broken, acct_on() sets acct->needcheck = jiffies and expects that check_free_space() should set acct->active = 1 after the free-space check, but this won't happen if jiffies increments in between. This was broken by commit |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
