This is an update of a series I posted a long time ago [1], updating
the IPC subsystem to pass down 64-bit time stamps to user space.
In particular, for sys_msgctl, sys_semctl and sys_shmctl, I do not
introduce a completely new set of replacement system calls, but instead
extend the existing ones to return data in the reserved fields of the
normal data structure.
This should be completely transparent to any existing user space, and
only after the 32-bit time_t wraps, it will make a difference in the
returned data.
libc implementations will consequently have to provide their own data
structures when they move to 64-bit time_t, and convert the structures
in user space from the ones returned by the kernel.
In contrast, mq_timedsend, mq_timedreceive and and semtimedop all do
need to change because having a libc redefine the timespec type
breaks the ABI, so with this series, there will be two separate entry
points for 32-bit architectures.
There are three cases here:
- little-endian architectures (except powerpc and mips) can use
the normal layout and just cast the data structure to the user space
type that contains 64-bit numbers.
- parisc and sparc can do the same thing with big-endian user space
- little-endian powerpc and most big-endian architectures have
to flip the upper and lower 32-bit halves of the time_t value in memory,
but can otherwise keep using the normal layout
- mips and big-endian xtensa need to be more careful because
they are not consistent in their definitions, and they have to provide
custom libc implementations for the system calls to use 64-bit time_t.
Changes to v2 [2]:
- added patches for mq_timedsend, mq_timedreceive and and semtimedop
system calls
- add asm-generic/compat.h changes to prepare for actually using those
on 32-bit.
- fix 'make headers_install' as reported by Heiko Carstens
- fix MIPS build as reported by build bot
- Cc everyone on all patches as originally intended, not just on the
cover letter.
Changes to v1 [1]:
- Rebased to the latest kernel (4.17-rc)
- Dropped changes for removed architectures
- Simplified the IPC code changes, based on prior work from
both Deepa and Eric
- Fixed a few bugs that I found during rebasing, in parcular the
sparc version was incorrect.
I haven't seen any objections to v1 and will send a pull request
to Thomas Gleixner after Deepa's first patches are all merged there.
There are a few more patches in my tree [3] now, I'm still testing
those and should be able to send the next batch next week.
