tools/nolibc: make time_t robust if __kernel_old_time_t is missing in host headers

2025-10-15T09:57:54+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0ff52df6b32a6b04a7c9dfe3d7a387aff215b482 ] Commit d5094bcb5bfd ("tools/nolibc: define time_t in terms of __kernel_old_time_t") made nolibc use the kernel's time type so that `time_t` matches `timespec::tv_sec` on all ABIs (notably x32). But since __kernel_old_time_t is fairly new, notably from 2020 in commit 94c467ddb273 ("y2038: add __kernel_old_timespec and __kernel_old_time_t"), nolibc builds that rely on host headers may fail. Switch to __kernel_time_t, which is the same as __kernel_old_time_t and has existed for longer.

tools/nolibc: define time_t in terms of __kernel_old_time_t

2025-08-28T14:28:17+00:00

[ Upstream commit d5094bcb5bfdfea2cf0de8aaf77cc65db56cbdb5 ] Nolibc assumes that the kernel ABI is using a time values that are as large as a long integer. For most ABIs this holds true. But for x32 this is not correct, as it uses 32bit longs but 64bit times. Also the 'struct stat' implementation of nolibc relies on timespec::tv_sec and time_t being the same type. While timespec::tv_sec comes from the kernel and is of type __kernel_old_time_t, time_t is defined within nolibc. Switch to the __kernel_old_time_t to always get the correct type.

tools/nolibc: add stdint.h

2023-03-20T15:45:21+00:00

Nolibc works fine for small and limited program however most program expect integer types to be defined in stdint.h rather than std.h. This is a quick fix that moves the existing integer definitions in std.h to stdint.h.

tools/nolibc/std: move the standard type definitions to std.h

2022-04-21T00:05:33+00:00

The ordering of includes and definitions for now is a bit of a mess, as for example asm/signal.h is included after int definitions, but plenty of structures are defined later as they rely on other includes. Let's move the standard type definitions to a dedicated file that is included first. We also move NULL there. This way all other includes are aware of it, and we can bring asm/signal.h back to the top of the file. Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney
