The patch titled poll/select: avoid arithmetic overflow in __estimate_accuracy() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was poll-select-avoid-arithmetic-overflow-in-__estimate_accuracy.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: poll/select: avoid arithmetic overflow in __estimate_accuracy() From: Guillaume Knispel <gknispel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> __estimate_accuracy() was prone to integer overflow, for example if *tv == {2147, 483648000} on a 32 bit computer (or even for delays as small as {429, 500000000} if the task is niced). Because the result was already forced between 0 and 100ms, the effect of the overflow was not too problematic, but the use of the hrtimer range feature was not optimal in overflow cases. This patch ensures that there can not be an integer overflow in this function.
