[Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.11?] osdep.h: Make TIME_MAX handle different time_t types
Posted by Peter Maydell 6 years, 4 months ago
In our various supported host OSes, the time_t type may be either 32
or 64 bit, and could in theory also be either signed or unsigned.
Notably, in OpenBSD time_t is a 64 bit type even if 'long' is 32
bits, so using LONG_MAX for TIME_MAX is incorrect.

Use an approach suggested by Paolo Bonzini which calculates
the maximum value of the type rather than hardcoding it;
to do this we use the TYPE_MAXIMUM macro from Gnulib.
