musl is moving to a default of 64-bit time_t on all architectures, glibc will follow later. This breaks reading timestamps through cmsg data with the HCI_TIME_STAMP socket option.
Change both copies of hcidump to work on all architectures. This also fixes x32, which has never worked, and carefully avoids breaking sparc64, which is another special case.
I have only compiled this on one architecture, please at least test it to ensure there are no regressions. The toolchain binaries from http://musl.cc/ should allow testing with a 64-bit time_t, but it may be hard to build all the dependencies first.
libpcap has the same bug and needs a similar fix to work on future 32-bit Linux systems. Everything else apparently uses the generic SO_TIMESTAMP timestamps, which work correctly when using new enough kernels with a time64 libc.

Won't it be broken on rv32 though? Based on my (albeit perhaps incomplete) reading of the thread, I think use of HCI_TIME_STAMP should just be dropped entirely in favor of using SO_TIMESTAMPNS -- my understanding was that it works with bluetooth sockets too.

All 32-bit architectures use old_timeval32 timestamps in the kernel here, even rv32 and x32. As a rule, we keep the types bug-for-bug compatible between architectures and fix them all at the same time.
Changing hcidump to SO_TIMESTAMPNS would work as well, but that is a much bigger change and I don't know how to test that.

If so, maybe I'll just do that for libpcap. Libpcap *does* have an API to request capturing with nanoseconds in tv_usec (and I plan to give it pcapng-flavored APIs to deliver higher-resolution time stamps, as well as metadata such as "incoming" vs. "outgoing", as well).

Sounds good to me, just make sure that you no longer reference HCI_TIME_STAMP and it should be fine with both old and new libc versions.
SO_TIMESTAMPNS was first added to the kernel in linux-2.6.22, which is probably older than anything you care about, but I'm not sure what you need to do to use it on bluetooth. It appears to have first been added along with the monitor channel support in linux-3.4.
On a semi-related note, I see that there is a y2038 compatibility in the libpcap definition of struct pcap_timeval, which uses a *signed* tv_sec field. I assume the sizes of the fields cannot be changed, but it would be good to investigate if you can just make it unsigned instead, changing the supported time range from 1902...2038 to 1970...2106. It probably makes sense to do this together with supporting nanosecond timestamps. You could also consider changing the format to use a 64-bit nanosecond value starting at either 1970 or 1902 to give an even larger range.

Should it be something more like

And libpcap's Linux BT code should do the same thing, changing its memcpy() call?
If you want, you can submit a pull request, or I can make the change.
