Subject: [PATCH v2] jiffies: Cast to unsigned long for secs_to_jiffies() conversion
Date: Thu, 30 Jan 2025 19:26:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250130192701.99626-1-eahariha@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
While converting users of msecs_to_jiffies(), lkp reported that some
range checks would always be true because of the mismatch between the
implied int value of secs_to_jiffies() vs the unsigned long
return value of the msecs_to_jiffies() calls it was replacing. Fix this
by casting secs_to_jiffies() values as unsigned long.
Fixes: b35108a51cf7ba ("jiffies: Define secs_to_jiffies()")
CC: stable@vger.kernel.org # 6.13+
CC: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
