Subject: [PATCH 3.10 05/24] xen-netback: use jiffies_64 value to calculate credit timeout
Date: Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:42:15 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131118184222.429032833@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20131118184222.017393843@linuxfoundation.org>
3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com>
[ Upstream commit 059dfa6a93b779516321e5112db9d7621b1367ba ]
time_after_eq() only works if the delta is < MAX_ULONG/2.
For a 32bit Dom0, if netfront sends packets at a very low rate, the time
between subsequent calls to tx_credit_exceeded() may exceed MAX_ULONG/2
and the test for timer_after_eq() will be incorrect. Credit will not be
replenished and the guest may become unable to send packets (e.g., if
prior to the long gap, all credit was exhausted).
Use jiffies_64 variant to mitigate this problem for 32bit Dom0.
