[PATCH 1/3] sys_poll: Fix negative timeout values for x86 userland on x86_64 kernels v2

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



size of int and long differs on x86 and x86_64. the ia32 emulation calls
directly into the sys_poll function. when the timeout is set to -1
the test for sign will fail in sys_poll as the 64bit register is tested.
the timeout timer will be set to 0xffffffff milliseconds, but the timer
shouldn't get set at all in this situation.
