The patch titled
prevent timespec/timeval to ktime_t overflow
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
prevent-timespec-timeval-to-ktime_t-overflow.patch
This patch was dropped because it had testing failures
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: prevent timespec/timeval to ktime_t overflow
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Frank v. Waveren pointed out that on 64bit machines the timespec to
ktime_t conversion might overflow. This is also true for timeval to
ktime_t conversions. This breaks a "sleep inf" on 64bit machines.
While a timespec/timeval with tx.sec = MAX_LONG is valid by specification
the internal representation of ktime_t is based on nanoseconds. The
conversion of seconds to nanoseconds overflows for seconds values >=
(MAX_LONG / NSEC_PER_SEC).
Check the seconds argument to the conversion and limit it to the maximum
time which can be represented by ktime_t.
