Subject: [PATCH] AFS: Correctly use 64-bit time for UUID
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2015 11:23:10 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150129055310.GA3033@tinar> (raw)

UUID calculation uses 'struct timespec' whose seconds will overflow
in year 2038 and beyond for 32-bit systems. This patch removes the
dependency on 'struct timespec' by using ktime_get_real_ns().
While the patch does not fix a 'bug' as such, it is part of a larger
effort to remove instances of 'struct timespec' and other data-structures
suffering from y2038 problem from the kernel.
