Public bug reported:
Hi, pals:
we found a coredump when we do ssh connection. the basic information as follow:
the stack trace in coredump:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x20007510 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1 0x2000c718 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6

timeout_ms=5000)
at sshconnect.c:1346
#6 0x204c433c in main (ac=, av=) at ssh.c:1326
the direct cause of the coredump, is that the function __mulvsi3 in gcc
checked the plus operation is overflow, then this gcc function abort().
the reason of the overflow is cause by the time-setting operation when
do ssh connect. in function ms_subtract_diff . the timeoutp get a very
big value because of the time-change.
So could we add a limitation for the differ of the 2 values get from
gettimeofday ? if it's too big, would lead to overflow, we set a default value
and report a warning log.
thanks for you attention and expect your reply.
B.R.
