ptp_clock_adjtime() validates an ADJ_FREQUENCY request by converting tx->freq to ppb and comparing it against ops->max_adj. On 64-bit systems that conversion can overflow s64 and wrap the result back into range, so a crafted tx->freq bypasses the check and reaches ->adjfine() unclamped.Patch 1 rejects the overflow in ptp_clock_adjtime(). Patch 2 adds a regression test that crafts struct timex.freq directly (testptp's int-ppb path cannot express the value) and confirms it is rejected with -ERANGE.
