Subject: [PATCH -tip] timekeeping: fix getboottime() sets invalid value
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2009 15:08:30 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A937FDE.4050506@ct.jp.nec.com> (raw)
From: Hiroshi Shimamoto <h-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com>
Don't use timespec_add_safe() with wall_to_monotonic, because wall_to_monotonic
has negative values which will cause overflow in timespec_add_safe().
That makes btime in /proc/stat invalid.
