So use the time_after() macro, defined in linux/jiffies.h, which deals with wrapping correctl Signed-off-by: S.Caglar Onur <caglar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@xxxxxx> Cc: Grant Grundler <grundler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/parisc/kernel/unaligned.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff -puN arch/parisc/kernel/unaligned.c~arch-parisc-kernel-unalignedc-use-time_-macros arch/parisc/kernel/unaligned.c --- a/arch/parisc/kernel/unaligned.c~arch-parisc-kernel-unalignedc-use-time_-macros +++ a/arch/parisc/kernel/unaligned.c @@ -460,7 +460,7 @@ void handle_unaligned(struct pt_regs *re goto force_sigbus; } - if (unaligned_count > 5 && jiffies - last_time > 5*HZ) { + if (unaligned_count > 5 && time_after(jiffies, last_time + 5 * HZ)) { unaligned_count = 0; last_time = jiffies; } _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from caglar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx are arch-alpha-kernel-trapsc-use-time_-macros.patch arch-ia64-kernel-use-time_-macros.patch arch-ia64-kernel-use-time_-macros-checkpatch-fixes.patch arch-parisc-kernel-unalignedc-use-time_-macros.patch arch-powerpc-platforms-iseries-pcic-use-time_-macros.patch drivers-net-arcnet-arcnetc-use-time_-macros.patch drivers-net-tokenring-3c359c-use-time_-macros.patch drivers-net-wireless-atmelc-use-time_-macros.patch fs-binfmt_aoutc-use-printk_ratelimit.patch fix-indentation.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
