The series is aimed at adding timestamp checking and policy related to it to vfs.
The series was developed with discussions and guidance from Arnd Bergmann.
The original thread is at https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/11/2/294
Associated test: xfstests generic/402 Note that the above test will be run and will fail all filesystems that do not have correct limits specified in the xfstests or the kernel or that don't support times beyond the test dates. I will be submitting a follow up xfstest and kernel patches to update all filesystems. Currently ext4 is the only filesystem that reflects correct limits.
The branch is available at https://github.com/deepa-hub/vfs.git refs/heads/vfs_timestamp_policy
Changes since v3: * Remove redundant initializations in libfs.c * Change early_param to __setup similar to other root mount options. * Fix documentation warning Changes since v2: * Introduce early boot param override for checks. * Drop afs patch for timestamp limits. Changes since v1: * return EROFS on mount errors * fix mtime copy/paste error in utimes
Deepa Dinamani (5): vfs: Add file timestamp range support vfs: Add checks for filesystem timestamp limits ext4: Initialize timestamps limits vfs: Add timestamp_truncate() api utimes: Clamp the timestamps before update

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.
Note that the time ranges are saved in type time64_t rather than time_t. This is required because if we save ranges in time_t then we would not be able to save timestamp ranges for files that support timestamps beyond y2038.

Just out of curiosity, does this enable 64-bit timestamps for everything by default? I see that ext4 later sets its own values in fill_super; what about things like XFS that really only have 32-bit seconds fields?

This is just initializing limits for each filesystem. Filesystems then override these limits with the actual limits they support. This is what ext4 patch in the series is doing. As the cover letter says, I will be submitting patches for all filesystems to update limits.
This is no different than what is happening right now. Right now, on 64 bit systems, VFS assumes timestamps to be 64 bits long for all filesystems.
On 32 bit systems, the series only effects handling of dates beyond the year 2038. This is until vfs is transitioned to support 64 bit times. At which point, the behavior on these will also be similar to 64 bit machines.
-Deepa
Allow read only mounts for filesystems that do not have maximum timestamps beyond the y2038 expiry timestamp.
Also, allow a sysctl override to all such filesystems to be mounted with write permissions. A boot param supports initial override of these checks from the early boot without recompilation.

timespec_trunc() function is used to truncate a filesystem timestamp to the right granularity. But, the function does not clamp tv_sec part of the timestamps according to the filesystem timestamp limits.
Also, timespec_trunc() is exclusively used for filesystem timestamps. Move the api to be part of vfs.
The replacement api: timestamp_truncate() also alters the signature of the function to accommodate filesystem timestamp clamping according to flesystem limits.
Note that the clamp_t macro is used for clamping here as vfs is not yet using struct timespec64 internally. This is required for compilation purposes. Also note that clamp won't do the right thing for timestamps beyond 2038 on 32-bit machines until the vfs uses timespec64. After the vfs is transitioned to use timespec64 for timestamps, clamp_t() can be replaced by clamp().
