From 8253947e2cdfb14717c9212b751b7aec9ea9ef5e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Li Wei Date: Sun, 29 Jul 2012 16:01:30 +0000 Subject: ipv6: fix incorrect route 'expires' value passed to userspace When userspace use RTM_GETROUTE to dump route table, with an already expired route entry, we always got an 'expires' value(2147157) calculated base on INT_MAX. The reason of this problem is in the following satement: rt->dst.expires - jiffies < INT_MAX gcc promoted the type of both sides of '<' to unsigned long, thus a small negative value would be considered greater than INT_MAX. With the help of Eric Dumazet, do the out of bound checks in rtnl_put_cacheinfo(), _after_ conversion to clock_t. Signed-off-by: Li Wei Signed-off-by: David S.
