Subject: [PATCH v2] drivers: s390: net: ctcm: migrate variables to handle y2038 problem
Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2014 11:18:50 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141031091850.GA2582@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

This patch is concerned with migrating the time variables for the s390
network driver. The changes handle the y2038 problem where timespec will
overflow in the year 2038. timespec was replaced by unsigned long and
all time variables get their values from the jiffies global variable.
This was done for the sake of speed and efficiency.

v1: Arnd has advised me to provide you with options for time
    calculation. The first option: "accuracy" is used in this
    patch. The second option: "speed" can be done through
    jiffies.

v2: Moved on to the speed option. Let me know if I explicitly
    need to include the jiffies header. The module compiles with
    no problems on my side.
