Subject: [PATCH  1/3] locking/csd_lock: Print large numbers as negatives
Date: Sat, 13 Jul 2024 22:28:44 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240713165846.216174-1-neeraj.upadhyay@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240713165642.GA215331@neeraj.linux>

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@kernel.org>

The CSD-lock-hold diagnostics from CONFIG_CSD_LOCK_WAIT_DEBUG are
printed in nanoseconds as unsigned long longs, which is a bit obtuse for
human readers when timing bugs result in negative CSD-lock hold times.
Yes, there are some people to whom it is immediately obvious that
18446744073709551615 is really -1, but for the rest of us...

Therefore, print these numbers as signed long longs, making the negative
hold times immediately apparent.
