[PATCH 06/11] timex: change syscalls to use struct __kernel_timex

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Deepa Dinamani <deepa.kernel@xxxxxxxxx>

struct timex is not y2038 safe.
Switch all the syscall apis to use y2038 safe __kernel_timex.

Note that sys_adjtimex() does not have a y2038 safe solution.  C libraries
can implement it by calling clock_adjtime(CLOCK_REALTIME, ...).
