The patch titled Subject: procfs: avoid 32-bit time_t in /proc/*/stat has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was procfs-avoid-32-bit-time_t-in-proc-stat.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Subject: procfs: avoid 32-bit time_t in /proc/*/stat /proc/stat shows (among lots of other things) the current boottime (i.e. number of seconds since boot). While a 32-bit number is sufficient for this particular case, we want to get rid of the 'struct timespec' suffers from a 32-bit overflow in 2038. This changes the code to use a struct timespec64, which is known to be safe in all cases.
