isofs uses a 'char' variable to load the number of years since 1900 for an inode timestamp. On architectures that use a signed char type by default, this results in an invalid date for anything beyond 2027. This changes the function argument to a 'u8' array, which is defined the same way on all architectures, and unambiguously lets us use years until 2155. This should be backported to all kernels that might still be in use by that date. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
