Introduction: The series is aimed at transitioning network timestamps to being y2038 safe. All patches can be reviewed and merged independently, except for the [PATCH 2/4], which is dependent on the [PATCH 1/4]. Socket timestamps and ioctl calls will be handled separately. Thanks to Arnd Bergmann for discussing solution options with me. Solution: Data type struct timespec is not y2038 safe. Replace timespec with struct timespec64 which is y2038 safe. Deepa Dinamani (4): kernel: time: Add current_nw_timestamp() for network timestamps net: ipv4: Use y2038 safe functions and data structures net: ipv4: tcp_probe: Replace timespec with timespec64 net: sctp: Convert log timestamps to be y2038 safe include/linux/ip.h | 2 ++ include/linux/time64.h | 3 +++ kernel/time/time.c | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ net/ipv4/icmp.c | 5 +---- net/ipv4/ip_options.c | 13 +++++-------- net/ipv4/tcp_probe.c | 8 ++++---- net/sctp/probe.c | 10 +++++----- 7 files changed, 46 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) -- 1.9.1 Cc: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevich@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Neil Horman <nhorman@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: "David S.
