When sending a new version of a patch you have already sent before, it's common practice to use [PATCH v2] in the subject, so please do that for the next version. Your changelog text is better than the first version, but can still be improved. I would at least mention that we want to remove all uses of 'timeval' from device drivers in order to better scan for y2038 problems in the drivers that still use them. Also, you don't mention at all the discussion we had about real time vs. monotonic time for this driver. I think using monotonic time (ktime_get_ts64()) would be more appropriate here, but whichever you choose, you should explain in the changelog why you think that one is better than the other. Most of the time, we end up changing from real time to monotonic time in the same patch when converting a driver to avoid 32-bit time_t, so even you don't change it, you should explain why not. > drivers/usb/gadget/udc/dummy_hcd.c | 6 +++--- > 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/usb/gadget/udc/dummy_hcd.c b/drivers/usb/gadget/udc/dummy_hcd.c > index 1379ad4..7be721dad 100644 > --- a/drivers/usb/gadget/udc/dummy_hcd.c > +++ b/drivers/usb/gadget/udc/dummy_hcd.c > @@ -833,10 +833,10 @@ static const struct usb_ep_ops dummy_ep_ops = { > /* there are both host and device side versions of this call ... */ > static int dummy_g_get_frame(struct usb_gadget *_gadget) > { > - struct timeval tv; > + struct timespec64 tv; > > - do_gettimeofday(&tv); > - return tv.tv_usec / 1000; > + getnstimeofday64(&tv); > + return tv.tv_nsec / 1000000L; > } > As in your other patch, I think the use of NSEC_PER_MSEC would make this slightly more understandable.

As we discussed in previous thread, only using jiffies can not keep the precise, and we should also handle the jiffies overflowing case, so I kept the old implementation. > >> drivers/usb/gadget/udc/dummy_hcd.c | 6 +++--- >> 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/usb/gadget/udc/dummy_hcd.c b/drivers/usb/gadget/udc/dummy_hcd.c >> index 1379ad4..7be721dad 100644 >> --- a/drivers/usb/gadget/udc/dummy_hcd.c >> +++ b/drivers/usb/gadget/udc/dummy_hcd.c >> @@ -833,10 +833,10 @@ static const struct usb_ep_ops dummy_ep_ops = { >> /* there are both host and device side versions of this call ... */ >> static int dummy_g_get_frame(struct usb_gadget *_gadget) >> { >> - struct timeval tv; >> + struct timespec64 tv; >> >> - do_gettimeofday(&tv); >> - return tv.tv_usec / 1000; >> + getnstimeofday64(&tv); >> + return tv.tv_nsec / 1000000L; >> } >> > > As in your other patch, I think the use of NSEC_PER_MSEC would make this > slightly more understandable. > > Arnd > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

As I said, it's most important to describe what the decision process was, rather than the specific decision (real time has worked fine in the past, so the change to monotonic is not critical here, just an additional improvement). Let's wait for more comments to the question whether the resolution should be changed for highspeed and superspeed mode, then you can post an updated version.

The millisecond of the last second will be normal if tv_sec is overflowed. But for y2038 consistency and demonstration purpose, and avoiding further risks, we still need to fix it here, to avoid similair problems.
