← Back to context Comment by loeg 8 hours ago It's 32 bits of milliseconds, right? Hm, no, that would overflow much sooner (49.7 days). 4 comments loeg Reply oasisaimlessly 8 hours ago It's a uint32_t of 750 Hz "jiffies", which does overflow at ~66 days. userbinator 6 hours ago While that seems like a convincing explanation, 750Hz is a rather odd value to use for a timer, and more importantly the overflow would be at 66d6h43m43s instead of the reported ~66d12h. i_am_proteus 2 hours ago It is indeed the explanation: https://github.com/NVIDIA/open-gpu-kernel-modules/pull/1014 fc417fc802 3 hours ago 66 days 12 hours would put it at 747.5 Hz. A different report had 66 days 10 hours 16 minutes which works out to 748 Hz.Maybe the clock was just feeling a little sluggish? /s

It's a uint32_t of 750 Hz "jiffies", which does overflow at ~66 days.
