[PATCH v2] prism54: isl_38xx: Replace 'struct timeval'

by Tina Ruchandani

'struct timeval' uses a 32-bit seconds field which will overflow in year 2038 and beyond. This patch is part of a larger effort to remove all instances of 'struct timeval' from the kernel and replace them with 64-bit timekeeping variables. The correctness of the code isn't affected by this patch - the seconds value being printed would earlier be wrong due to overflow in timeval, and now it gets truncated to 32-bit due to the 'long' cast used on tv.sec field to prevent compiler warnings. Truly fixing this would require changing the debug print to print more than 8 digits and use a different specifier from %li. The patch was build-tested / debugged by removing the "if VERBOSE > SHOW_ERROR_MESSAGES" guards.

[PATCH] firewire: nosy: Replace timeval with timespec64

by Tina Ruchandani

'struct timeval' uses a 32 bit field for its 'seconds' value which will overflow in year 2038 and beyond. This patch replaces the use of timeval in nosy.c with timespec64 which doesn't suffer from y2038 issue. The code is correct as is - since it is only using the microseconds portion of timeval. However, this patch does the replacement as part of a larger effort to remove all instances of 'struct timeval' from the kernel (that would help identify cases where the code is actually broken).

[PATCH RESEND] net: ipv4: Fix truncated timestamp returned by inet_current_timestamp()

by Deepa Dinamani

The millisecond timestamps returned by the function is converted to network byte order by making a call to htons(). htons() only returns __be16 while __be32 is required here. This was identified by the sparse warning from the buildbot: net/ipv4/af_inet.c:1405:16: sparse: incorrect type in return expression (different base types) net/ipv4/af_inet.c:1405:16: expected restricted __be32 net/ipv4/af_inet.c:1405:16: got restricted __be16 [usertype] <noident> Change the function to use htonl() to return the correct __be32 type instead so that the millisecond value doesn't get truncated.

[PATCH v7] isdn: Use ktime_t instead of 'struct timeval'

by Tina Ruchandani

'struct timeval' uses 32-bit representation for seconds which will overflow in year 2038 and beyond. mISDN/clock.c needs to compute and store elapsed time in intervals of 125 microseconds. This patch replaces the usage of 'struct timeval' with 64-bit ktime_t which is y2038 safe. The patch also replaces do_gettimeofday() (wall-clock time) with ktime_get() (monotonic time) since we only care about elapsed time here.

[PATCH v2] vfs: Add support to check max and min inode times

by Deepa Dinamani

This is a preparation patch to add range checking for inode timestamps. Extend struct super_block to include information about the max and min inode times each filesystem can hold. These are dependent on the on-disk format of filesystems. These range checks will be used to clamp timestamps to filesystem allowed ranges. Individual filesystems do not have the same on disk format as the in memory inodes. Range checking and clamping times assigned to inodes will help keep in memory and on-disk timestamps to be in sync. Every time a new superblock is created, make sure that the superblock max and min timestamp fields are assigned invalid values. Another series will initialize these fields to appropriate values for every filesystem. The values are currently ignored. The exact policy and behavior will be decided in a separate patch. max and min times are initialized to MIN_VFS_TIME and MAX_VFS_TIME respectively so that even if one of the fields is uninitialized, it can be detected by using the condition max_time < min_time.

[PATCH 0/2] Add infrastructure to support vfs 64 bit times

by Deepa Dinamani

The series contains infrastucture patches required to convert vfs times to use 64 bit time. The intention is to include these as part of 4.6 so that the follow on patches can go into 4.7. Patch 1 is as per the agreed upon RFC approach 2b: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/2/12/105 And, patch 2 is as per previously agreed upon discussion in: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/7/20 The patches that will use these will be posted for the subsequent kernel release. The series and the plan have been discussed with Arnd Bergmann.
