Subject: [PATCH 2/2] wifi: iwlwifi: mld: Fix GP2 to nanoseconds overflow on 32-bit
Date: Wed,  5 Aug 2026 16:25:15 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260805082515.4136842-3-zhanxusheng@xiaomi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260805082515.4136842-1-zhanxusheng@xiaomi.com>

GP2 is a free-running 32-bit microsecond hardware counter. The PTP code
converts a u32 GP2 value to nanoseconds as:

	gp2 * NSEC_PER_USEC

NSEC_PER_USEC is a plain 'long' (1000L), so on 32-bit builds this
multiplication is evaluated in 32-bit arithmetic and overflows once the
GP2 value exceeds ~4.29 million microseconds (~4.3 s). GP2 wraps only
every 2^32 microseconds (~71.5 min), so the product is truncated for
almost the entire counter range, producing bogus PTP timestamps.

Neighbouring conversions already cast to u64 first (e.g.
(u64)gp2 * NSEC_PER_USEC); these sites just missed the cast. Cast to u64
so the multiplication is performed in 64-bit, matching the existing call
sites. 64-bit builds are unaffected.

Fixes: d1e879ec600f ("wifi: iwlwifi: add iwlmld sub-driver")
Fixes: f1699ad5857d ("wifi: iwlwifi: mld: add debugfs for using ptp clock time for monitor interface")
