The patch titled Provide u64 version of jiffies_to_usecs() in kernel/tsacct.c has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is provide-u64-version-of-jiffies_to_usecs-in-kernel-tsacctc.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Provide u64 version of jiffies_to_usecs() in kernel/tsacct.c From: Jonathan Lim <jlim@xxxxxxx> It's possible that the values used in and returned from jiffies_to_usecs() are incorrect because of truncation when variables of type u64 are involved. So a function specific to that type is used instead. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Lim <jlim@xxxxxxx> Cc: "H.
