[PATCH 1/4] lib/timeutils.c: bug fix Segmentation fault

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

 



Use reentrant time functions to avoid sending a NULL pointer to
format_iso_time() (and to be reentrant ;). Followup commits test for
errors and tm_year wrapping (illustrated below).

hwclock --utc --noadjfile --predict --date '67768034678849400 seconds'
