Subject: [PATCH 3/7] [hrtimers] Fix oldvalue return in setitimer
Date: Fri, 20 Jan 2006 02:55:47 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060120021342.498532000@tglx.tec.linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20060120021336.134802000@tglx.tec.linutronix.de

[-- Attachment #1: 0003-hrtimers-Fix-oldvalue-return-in-setitimer.txt --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1202 bytes --]


This resolves bugzilla bug#5617. The oldvalue of the
timer was read after the timer was cancelled, so the
remaining time was always zero.
