[PATCH] drivers: s390: net: ctcm: migrate variables to handle y2038 problem

From: Aya Mahfouz
Date: Tue Nov 04 2014 - 10:45:33 EST


This patch is concerned with migrating the time variables for the s390
network driver. The changes handle the y2038 problem where timespec will
overflow in the year 2038. timespec was replaced by unsigned long and
all time variables get their values from the jiffies global variable.
This was done for the sake of speed and efficiency.

ch->prof.tx_time will now hold the difference between two jiffies'
values instead of the difference between two xtime values
represented in microseconds.

v1: Arnd has advised me to provide you with options for time
calculation. The first option: "accuracy" is used in this
patch. The second option: "speed" can be done through
jiffies.

v2: Moved on to the speed option. Let me know if I explicitly
need to include the jiffies header. The module compiles with
no problems on my side.

v3: Handled the error pointed out by Ursula. The current version
does not handle overflows. There are two solutions for this.
The first is to use jiffies_64 since s/390 is a 64-bit
architecture after all. The second is to use wrapper functions
like time_before and time_after. Two files were added too.
They are: ctcm_main.c and netiucv.c. This patch could be sent
as a patchset in its final version for convenience.

v4: removed #include <linux/jiffies.h> per Ursula's feedback.
Changed duration to hold the difference between jiffies
instead of difference between microsecond values per Arnd's
suggestion.

v5: added changes written by Ursula to handle missed modifications.
