commit 4e8c11b6b3f0b6a283e898344f154641eda94266 upstream.
Even after commit e1d7ba873555 ("time: Always make sure wall_to_monotonic
isn't positive") it is still possible to make wall_to_monotonic positive
by running the following code:
int main(void)
{
struct timespec time;
clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &time);
time.tv_nsec = 0;
clock_settime(CLOCK_REALTIME, &time);
return 0;
}
The reason is that the second parameter of timespec64_compare(), ts_delta,
may be unnormalized because the delta is calculated with an open coded
substraction which causes the comparison of tv_sec to yield the wrong
result:
wall_to_monotonic = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 900000000 }
ts_delta = { .tv_sec = -9, .tv_nsec = -900000000 }
That makes timespec64_compare() claim that wall_to_monotonic < ts_delta,
but actually the result should be wall_to_monotonic > ts_delta.
After normalization, the result of timespec64_compare() is correct because
the tv_sec comparison is not longer misleading:
wall_to_monotonic = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 900000000 }
ts_delta = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 100000000 }
Use timespec64_sub() to ensure that ts_delta is normalized, which fixes the
issue.
