Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: ctnetlink: fix timeout calculation
Date: Fri, 30 Dec 2011 10:40:17 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1325259617-22034-1-git-send-email-xi.wang@gmail.com> (raw)
The sanity check (timeout < 0) never works; the dividend is unsigned
and so is the division, which should have been a signed division.
long timeout = (ct->timeout.expires - jiffies) / HZ;
if (timeout < 0)
timeout = 0;
This patch converts the time values to signed for the division.
