Subject: [-stable PATCH] UML - fix uptime
Date: Tue, 20 Jun 2006 18:25:03 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200606202225.k5KMP3U5006871@ccure.user-mode-linux.org> (raw)
Please consider this for 2.6.17-stable. It made -mm briefly, but missed
2.6.17. It fixes the value of uptime, which was broken by a patch late in
2.6.17-rc.
The use of unsigned instead of unsigned here broke the calculations on
negative numbers that are involved in calculating wall_to_monotonic.
