![]() These are updates to device drivers and file systems that for some reason or another were not included in the kernel in the previous y2038 series. I've gone through all users of time_t again to make sure the kernel is in a long-term maintainable state, replacing all remaining references to time_t with safe alternatives. Some related parts of the series were picked up into the nfsd, xfs, alsa and v4l2 trees. A final set of patches in linux-mm removes the now unused time_t/timeval/timespec types and helper functions after all five branches are merged for linux-5.6, ensuring that no new users get merged. As a result, linux-5.6, or my backport of the patches to 5.4 [1], should be the first release that can serve as a base for a 32-bit system designed to run beyond year 2038, with a few remaining caveats: - All user space must be compiled with a 64-bit time_t, which will be supported in the coming musl-1.2 and glibc-2.32 releases, along with installed kernel headers from linux-5.6 or higher. - Applications that use the system call interfaces directly need to be ported to use the time64 syscalls added in linux-5.1 in place of the existing system calls. This impacts most users of futex() and seccomp() as well as programming languages that have their own runtime environment not based on libc. - Applications that use a private copy of kernel uapi header files or their contents may need to update to the linux-5.6 version, in particular for sound/asound.h, xfs/xfs_fs.h, linux/input.h, linux/elfcore.h, linux/sockios.h, linux/timex.h and linux/can/bcm.h. - A few remaining interfaces cannot be changed to pass a 64-bit time_t in a compatible way, so they must be configured to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC times or (with a y2106 problem) unsigned 32-bit timestamps. Most importantly this impacts all users of 'struct input_event'. - All y2038 problems that are present on 64-bit machines also apply to 32-bit machines. In particular this affects file systems with on-disk timestamps using signed 32-bit seconds: ext4 with ext3-style small inodes, ext2, xfs (to be fixed soon) and ufs. Changes since v1 [2]: - Add Acks I received - Rebase to v5.5-rc1, dropping patches that got merged already - Add NFS, XFS and the final three patches from another series - Rewrite etnaviv patches - Add one late revert to avoid an etnaviv regression [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground.git/log/?h=y2038-endgame [2] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191108213257.3097633-1-arnd@arndb.de/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAABCAAGBQJeMYy3AAoJEGCrR//JCVInEGwP/0R+S+ok7vw9OdLVT0lFl07D IcVabgOWf24imN7m7L7Mlt3nDfxIT4tMpiAXq7eMO3spcyViG18O2LXdSQ4/7QBp +BlhoMjOP9w34Jyd7mnkFr4vqQALvfIqkS8rFObDtDub2Rfj9PC36MRMIu8BPXlv RK8bigwJeH/DV38yc5/JeUcD+WuewYLsK9XPWN+4yB4vgGsNU3ZQQ6nnzbR3hMsN DN8WZ68Y7IBs0Kyxkf+s2zmRXtCa2RiFg/2TUsk5olVAJVaenvte69hq5RSbg1vW vLi6K8cBoPWL59nqCzcNE+TUhSUg3LOj/a/KWyl76yovz7AlJaNjssOf8ZjHw6sL MhQqz3hXTxiJDS2Jvbf1yojiYGlzrq/gqcRFGe9jPcZdieMc4/yZCx60G/Exa5Pu YdMcqMyDWPFyUAFQNWEF59HPheOdj6tb1KpJ6bwgCo3P7QqhLrU4z9w3Py4/ZfBO 4sWcWteSsD6MN/ADJ2WQ56nNxzM2AvkeVJKcF6FCkdngXX9T0GExmZz7SqB5Du99 9lNjIiD5E+LBa/Swo/7n49aYa8x06V1pmHYTZVh9Wkl+CZiO21umezQFrWsfaMTp xt3c6pFdMG5xNMGpreTAXOmf2R+T6O8IO2qQq/TYjzqOLH7QC830P7avkmml+cK1 LjOBE2TfSeO8Ru1dXV4t =wx0A -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'y2038-drivers-for-v5.6-signed' of git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground Pull y2038 updates from Arnd Bergmann: "Core, driver and file system changes These are updates to device drivers and file systems that for some reason or another were not included in the kernel in the previous y2038 series.
