This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled time: Change posix clocks ops interfaces to use timespec64 to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: time-change-posix-clocks-ops-interfaces-to-use-timespec64.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Thu Mar 22 14:57:32 CET 2018 From: Deepa Dinamani <deepa.kernel@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 26 Mar 2017 12:04:13 -0700 Subject: time: Change posix clocks ops interfaces to use timespec64 From: Deepa Dinamani <deepa.kernel@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit d340266e19ddb70dbd608f9deedcfb35fdb9d419 ] struct timespec is not y2038 safe on 32 bit machines. The posix clocks apis use struct timespec directly and through struct itimerspec. Replace the posix clock interfaces to use struct timespec64 and struct itimerspec64 instead. Also fix up their implementations accordingly. Note that the clock_getres() interface has also been changed to use timespec64 even though this particular interface is not affected by the y2038 problem. This helps verification for internal kernel code for y2038 readiness by getting rid of time_t/ timeval/ timespec.
