Subject: [PATCH] negcache: Soften condition for expired entries
Type of timestamp for entries in negative cache is time_t
which is number of *seconds* that have elapsed since 1 January 1970.
The condition for ttl was to strict so entry could be valid
from "ttl-1" to ttl e.g.
* ttl is 1 second
* entry was stored to negative cache at 1432120871.999639
stored_timestamp = 1432120871
* entry was tested few miliseconds later 1432120872.001293
current_time = 1432120872
Entry was marked as expired becuase result of condition was false
stored_timestamp + ttl < current_time
1432120871 + 1 < 1432120872
This is a reason why ./test-negcache sometime fails.
It's quite easily reproducible on slow machine or when valgrind was used.
sh$ while libtool --mode=execute valgrind ./test-negcache ; do echo OK: done
