Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: (coretemp) Fix 32-bit jiffies wraparound in
 show_temp()
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

show_temp() rate-limits MSR reads by storing tdata->last_updated as an
unsigned long and comparing it against jiffies using
time_after(jiffies, tdata->last_updated + HZ).

time_after() relies on signed long subtraction, which only produces the
expected result while the two timestamps are within LONG_MAX jiffies of
each other. On 32-bit kernels, if tempX_input is not read for more than
LONG_MAX jiffies (~24.85 days at HZ=1000), the signed difference flips
sign and time_after() evaluates to false. Because tdata->last_updated is
only refreshed when time_after() succeeds, subsequent reads remain
blocked from refreshing for another ~24.85 days until jiffies wraps
past tdata->last_updated + HZ again, returning either a stale cached
temperature or -ENODATA if the sensor had never been read since
initialization.

Store tdata->last_updated as a u64 and use get_jiffies_64() with
time_after64(), which does not wrap in any practical uptime.
