If we try to set year earlier than 2000 then hardware clock get reset to "epoch". This patch check for year value between 2000 to 2099 otherwise returns "EINVAL" error. In conclusion this patch restricts system to set hardware clock to set year below and above the year 2000 and 2099 respectively. > > Signed-off-by: Aashish P Sonawane mailto:AashishPSonawane@xxxxxxxxx > Suggested-by: Meghan Saitwal mailto:MeghanSaitwal@xxxxxxxxx > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------diff --git a/drivers/rtc/rtc-s35390a.c b/drivers/rtc/rtc-s35390a.c > index 84806ff763cf..aea52548571e 100644 > --- a/drivers/rtc/rtc-s35390a.c > +++ b/drivers/rtc/rtc-s35390a.c > @@ -214,6 +214,9 @@ static int s35390a_rtc_set_time(struct device *dev, struct rtc_time *tm) > int i, err; > char buf[7], status; > > + if (tm->tm_year < 100 || tm->tm_year > 199) > + return EINVAL; > + > dev_dbg(&client->dev, "%s: tm is secs=%d, mins=%d, hours=%d mday=%d, " > "mon=%d, year=%d, wday=%d\n", __func__, tm->tm_sec, > tm->tm_min, tm->tm_hour, tm->tm_mday, tm->tm_mon, tm->tm_year, <formletter> This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the stable kernel tree.
