I agree that this is an issue.
My proposal:
- Change s64 to u64 for ts and in timestamp in opa_hfi1_cong_log_event_internal
- Change the calls:
ktime_to_ns(ktime_get()) / 1024
-- to --
ktime_get_ns() / 1024
- Change to use Jason's test from above with UINT_MAX
Dan, we can do the patch or you can send a v2?
