time: Correct the prototype of ns_to_kernel_old_timeval and ns_to_timespec64

2022-08-09T18:02:13+00:00

In ns_to_kernel_old_timeval() definition, the function argument is defined with const identifier in kernel/time/time.c, but the prototype in include/linux/time32.h looks different. - The function is defined in kernel/time/time.c as below: struct __kernel_old_timeval ns_to_kernel_old_timeval(const s64 nsec) - The function is decalared in include/linux/time32.h as below: extern struct __kernel_old_timeval ns_to_kernel_old_timeval(s64 nsec); Because the variable of arithmethic types isn't modified in the calling scope, there's no need to mark arguments as const, which was already mentioned during review (Link[1) of the original patch. Likewise remove the "const" keyword in both definition and declaration of ns_to_timespec64() as requested by Arnd (Link[2]).

time64.h: consolidate uses of PSEC_PER_NSEC

2022-07-01T04:18:16+00:00

Time-sensitive networking code needs to work with PTP times expressed in nanoseconds, and with packet transmission times expressed in picoseconds, since those would be fractional at higher than gigabit speed when expressed in nanoseconds. Convert the existing uses in tc-taprio and the ocelot/felix DSA driver to a PSEC_PER_NSEC macro. This macro is placed in include/linux/time64.h as opposed to its relatives (PSEC_PER_SEC etc) from include/vdso/time64.h because the vDSO library does not (yet) need/use it.

time: Handle negative seconds correctly in timespec64_to_ns()

2021-09-08T15:44:26+00:00

timespec64_ns() prevents multiplication overflows by comparing the seconds value of the timespec to KTIME_SEC_MAX. If the value is greater or equal it returns KTIME_MAX. But that check casts the signed seconds value to unsigned which makes the comparision true for all negative values and therefore return wrongly KTIME_MAX. Negative second values are perfectly valid and required in some places, e.g. ptp_clock_adjtime(). Remove the cast and add a check for the negative boundary which is required to prevent undefined behaviour due to multiplication underflow.

linux/time64.h: Extract common header for vDSO

2020-03-21T14:23:58+00:00

The vDSO library should only include the necessary headers required for a userspace library (UAPI and a minimal set of kernel headers). To make this possible it is necessary to isolate from the kernel headers the common parts that are strictly necessary to build the library. Split time64.h into linux and common headers to make the latter suitable for inclusion in the vDSO library.

vfs: Add file timestamp range support

2019-08-30T14:27:17+00:00

Add fields to the superblock to track the min and max timestamps supported by filesystems. Initially, when a superblock is allocated, initialize it to the max and min values the fields can hold. Individual filesystems override these to match their actual limits. Pseudo filesystems are assumed to always support the min and max allowable values for the fields.

timekeeping: Force upper bound for setting CLOCK_REALTIME

2019-03-28T12:41:06+00:00

Several people reported testing failures after setting CLOCK_REALTIME close to the limits of the kernel internal representation in nanoseconds, i.e. year 2262. The failures are exposed in subsequent operations, i.e. when arming timers or when the advancing CLOCK_MONOTONIC makes the calculation of CLOCK_REALTIME overflow into negative space. Now people start to paper over the underlying problem by clamping calculations to the valid range, but that's just wrong because such workarounds will prevent detection of real issues as well. It is reasonable to force an upper bound for the various methods of setting CLOCK_REALTIME. Year 2262 is the absolute upper bound. Assume a maximum uptime of 30 years which is plenty enough even for esoteric embedded systems. That results in an upper bound of year 2232 for setting the time. Once that limit is reached in reality this limit is only a small part of the problem space. But until then this stops people from trying to paper over the problem at the wrong places.

y2038: remove struct definition redirects

2019-02-06T23:13:28+00:00

We now use 64-bit time_t on all architectures, so the __kernel_timex, __kernel_timeval and __kernel_timespec redirects can be removed after having served their purpose. This makes it all much less confusing, as the __kernel_* types now always refer to the same layout based on 64-bit time_t across all 32-bit and 64-bit architectures. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

time: Introduce struct __kernel_itimerspec

2018-06-24T12:39:46+00:00

struct itimerspec is not y2038-safe. Introduce a new struct __kernel_itimerspec based on the kernel internal y2038-safe struct itimerspec64. The definition of struct __kernel_itimerspec includes two struct __kernel_timespec. Since struct __kernel_timespec has the same representation in native and compat modes, so does struct __kernel_itimerspec. This helps have a common entry point for syscalls using struct __kernel_itimerspec. New y2038-safe syscalls will use this new type. Since most of the new syscalls are just an update to the native syscalls with the type update, place the new definition under CONFIG_64BIT_TIME. This helps architectures that do not support the above config to keep using the old definition of struct itimerspec. Also change the get/put_itimerspec64 to use struct__kernel_itimerspec. This will help 32 bit architectures to use the new syscalls when architectures select CONFIG_64BIT_TIME.

timekeeping: Remove timespec64 hack

2018-05-19T11:57:31+00:00

At this point, we have converted most of the kernel to use timespec64 consistently in place of timespec, so it seems it's time to make timespec64 the native structure and define timespec in terms of that one on 64-bit architectures. Starting with gcc-5, the compiler can completely optimize away the timespec_to_timespec64 and timespec64_to_timespec functions on 64-bit architectures. With older compilers, we introduce a couple of extra copies of local variables, but those are easily avoided by using the timespec64 based interfaces consistently, as we do in most of the important code paths already. The main upside of removing the hack is that printing the tv_sec field of a timespec64 structure can now use the %lld format string on all architectures without a cast to time64_t. Without this patch, the field is a 'long' type and would have to be printed using %ld on 64-bit architectures.
