[PATCH] vdso: Define NSEC_PER_SEC as 64-bit to prevent overflow
Posted by Wake Liu 2 months ago
The constant NSEC_PER_SEC (1,000,000,000) is defined as a long literal.
On 32-bit systems like arm32, where long is 32 bits, this value can
overflow when used in 64-bit calculations.

This can lead to incorrect time calculations within the VDSO.

To fix this, define NSEC_PER_SEC as a long long literal (1000000000LL),
ensuring it is treated as a 64-bit value on all architectures and
preventing potential overflows.
