[patch 82/94] initramfs: use time64_t timestamps

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

 



From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
Subject: initramfs: use time64_t timestamps

The cpio format uses a 32-bit number to encode file timestamps, which
breaks initramfs support in 2038.  This reinterprets the timestamp as
unsigned, to give us another 68 years and avoids breaking until 2106.
