This patch adds const qualifiers to the functions Allocator::consumed,
Allocator::overhead, Allocator::avail, and Range_allocator::valid_addr.
Fixes#1481
We will always see this error message when the driver is started. It
is expected and not an actual error. When the driver is running it will
not allocate larger chunks than the Slab provides. Therefore, we can
safely ignore this message.
Issue #1439.
Among others, this function is used in the for_each_set_big() macro,
which is used when configuring the data rate tables. Therefore, this
fixes observed performance issues.
Fixes#1439.
The jiffies are only updated on each round of scheduling the runnable
tasks. We have to schedule the current task that executes the sleep
call to update the jiffies count and thereby preventing the task from
entering an endless loop when using a statement like
'while (!time_after(jiffies, now + timeout)) { msleep(1); }'.
Related to #1326.
