That does seem quite plausible. The comparisons are done with time_t, which boils down to 'long' and 100 years in seconds would overflow LONG_MAX. > Could you try changing the '36500' in kernel/Makefile to something shorter, > like 365? I tried two values today. One close to LONG_MAX (24800 or ~68 years), and 10 years (3650). The former still seemed to overflow, but specifying a 10yr lifetime appears to have worked. josh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
