The series introduces struct __kernel_timex as a substitute for the non y2038 safe struct timex.
The series is based on the original series posted by Arnd Bergmann in [1].
The overview of the series is as below: 1. Prepare for the compat timex interfaces to be used unconditionally. 2. Introduce struct __kernel_timex. 3. Use struct __kernel_timex in place of struct timex. 4. Switch syscalls to use struct __kernel_timex.

As we repurpose more compat syscalls to be used in non CONFIG_COMPAT usecases as part of solving y2038, we need to make these basic types available unconditionally.

NAK. Compat code is for foreign ABIs. If this code is going to be used elsewhere it should not be named compat_ and not be in compat.h.
linux/compat.h was including this indirectly for asm/compat.h dependencies.

riscv does not enable CONFIG_COMPAT in default configurations: defconfig, allmodconfig and allnoconfig. Remove the asm/compat.h as it does not seem to add any value to the architecture without CONFIG_COMPAT.
Now that time compat syscalls are being reused in non CONFIG_COMPAT modes, asm-generic/compat.h provides definitions for riscv 32 bit mode.
Alternative would be to make compat_time.h to be conditional on CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME. But, since riscv does not does not need asm/compat.h, delete it instead.

Except that all this isn't relavant for this patch (and a horribly bad idea, but Í'll reply to it separately).

I thought we were using this to make uname print "riscv64" (or "riscv32") instead of just "riscv"? Is there another mechanism to do that?

That is set in the UTS_MACHINE variable in arch/riscv/Makefile and doesn't involve compat.h at all except when actually implementing 32-bit compat on 64 bit, which RISC-V doesn't (at least yet).

Note that the logic was also wrong, if we had an implementation of CONFIG_COMPAT for arch/riscv, it would always result in the "riscv64" string for both PER_LINUX and PER_LINUX32, when it should be "riscv32" for the PER_LINUX32 personaliy.

Move struct compat_timex to compat_time.h. This is in line with other compat time structures that are planned to be deprecated eventually.
Also enable compat_get/put_timex helpers unconditionally.

struct timex uses struct timeval internally. struct timeval is not y2038 safe. Introduce a new UAPI type struct __kernel_timex that is y2038 safe.
struct __kernel_timex uses a timeval type that is similar to struct __kernel_timespec which preserves the same structure size across 32 bit and 64 bit ABIs. struct __kernel_timex also restructures other members of the structure to make the structure the same on 64 bit and 32 bit architectures. Note that struct __kernel_timex is the same as struct timex on a 64 bit architecture.
The above solution is similar to other new y2038 syscalls that are being introduced: both 32 bit and 64 bit ABIs have a common entry, and the compat entry supports the old 32 bit syscall interface.
Alternatives considered were: 1. Add new time type to struct timex that makes use of padded bits. This time type could be based on the struct __kernel_timespec. modes will use a flag to notify which time structure should be used internally. This needs some application level changes on both 64 bit and 32 bit architectures. Although 64 bit machines could continue to use the older timeval structure without any changes.
2. Add a new u8 type to struct timex that makes use of padded bits. This can be used to save higher order tv_sec bits. modes will use a flag to notify presence of such a type. This will need some application level changes on 32 bit architectures.
3. Add a new compat_timex structure that differs in only the size of the time type; keep rest of struct timex the same. This requires extra syscalls to manage all 3 cases on 64 bit architectures. This will not need any application level changes but will add more complexity from kernel side.

struct timex uses struct timeval internally. struct timeval is not y2038 safe. Introduce a new UAPI type struct __kernel_timex that is y2038 safe.
struct __kernel_timex uses a timeval type that is similar to struct __kernel_timespec which preserves the same structure size across 32 bit and 64 bit ABIs. struct __kernel_timex also restructures other members of the structure to make the structure the same on 64 bit and 32 bit architectures. Note that struct __kernel_timex is the same as struct timex on a 64 bit architecture.
The above solution is similar to other new y2038 syscalls that are being introduced: both 32 bit and 64 bit ABIs have a common entry, and the compat entry supports the old 32 bit syscall interface.
Alternatives considered were:
Add new time type to struct timex that makes use of padded bits. This time type could be based on the struct __kernel_timespec. modes will use a flag to notify which time structure should be used internally. This needs some application level changes on both 64 bit and 32 bit architectures. Although 64 bit machines could continue to use the older timeval structure without any changes.
Add a new u8 type to struct timex that makes use of padded bits. This can be used to save higher order tv_sec bits. modes will use a flag to notify presence of such a type. This will need some application level changes on 32 bit architectures.
Add a new compat_timex structure that differs in only the size of the time type; keep rest of struct timex the same. This requires extra syscalls to manage all 3 cases on 64 bit architectures. This will not need any application level changes but will add more complexity from kernel side.
Hi Deepa,
sorry for taking so long with my reply
I've done a similar patch for the itimerval and the rusuage structures that have the same basic problem of embedding a timeval, and after a lot of back-and-forth on my end, I came to the same conclusion with the structure layout: using a single binary layout that is shared between 32-bit and 64-bit ABIs is better than any of the other approaches that one of us tried.
However, I'm still undecided about how to exactly put that in the uapi headers.

The main disadvantage here is that a a typical ntp daemon that includes this header will now call the new system call, but still see the old structure definition that no longer matches, unless one modifies it to use __kernel_timex.
I checked the most important libc implementations to see how they pass this structure to user space:
glibc, musl, uclibc: sys/timex.h contains a private version of this structure, the kernel header is not included
bionic: sys/timex.h includes linux/timex.h, which is shipped with the libc and generated from kernel headers
klibc: there is no sys/timex.h, but also no adjtimex()/clock_adjtime() syscall
In short, this probably only really matters for bionic, and of course only if they choose to even support 64-bit time_t (which in turn requires other changes to the libc)
I can see two possible ways to define 'struct timex' in the kernel in a way that always matches the respective adjtimex.
a) rename the old timex to __kernel_old_timex, and add a snippet that will #define one of the two to be called 'struct timex' again:
#ifdef __USE_TIME_BITS64 #define __kernel_old_timex timex #define __kernel_old_timex_timeval timeval #else #define __kernel_timex timex #define __kernel_timex_timeval timeval #endif
b) use only one definition in the header file, but use configuration dependent types, don't rename timex to __kernel_timex, and only use compat_timex for the old 32-bit version inside of the kernel:
/* for fields that are the same size as time_t */ #ifdef __KERNEL__ typedef __s64 timex_long_t; #else typedef time_t timex_long_t; #endif
struct timex { unsigned int modes; /* mode selector */ char __pad1[sizeof(timex_long_t) - sizeof(int); __timex_long_t offset; /* time offset (usec) */ __timex_long_t freq; /* frequency offset (scaled ppm) */ __timex_long_t maxerror; /* maximum error (usec) */ __timex_long_t esterror; /* estimated error (usec) */ int status; /* clock command/status */ char __pad1[sizeof(timex_long_t) - sizeof(int); __timex_long_t constant; /* pll time constant */ ... };
Both a) and b) should work fine with bionic and any application that includes linux/timex.h instead of sys/timex.h

I don't think this patches makes sense without the next one, which actually uses the structure.

Wrong comment style, also the 'compat path is the 32 (or 31 in case of s390) bit emulation, so the comment seems rather confusing.

using #defines for structs has all kinds of ill effects. Why can't we aways use __kernel_timex for the in-kernel usage?

Why do we need padding for a purely in-kernel structure?
Also the anonymous member syntax is rather odd and I don't remeber us using it anywhere else. Why here?

It's the same thing that Deepa did in the already merged series for the timespec interfaces, this is done in order to stage the conversion of 50 system calls and 20 architectures without having to do everything at once.
The system call entry points are changed to take a __kernel_timespec or __kernel_timex argument as the first step, and the conditional macro override makes that a NOP. At the same time, the existing compat entry points are modified so they have the exact same behavior but use the compat_timespec, compat_timex etc argument types (which we can rename, too, as discussed).
When a 32-bit architecture gets converted, it sets CONFIG_64BIT_TIME, which flips the normal syscall entry to use 64-bit time_t, and enables the compat syscalls to be built. The same arch specific patch must then change the syscall table to redirect the old syscall numbers to the compat handlers (which implement the 32-bit time_t arguments), and add new numbers pointing to the default handlers that now take the 64-bit time_t, see https://pastebin.com/F3QZdyin
This was all explained in a lot of detail when the first set of patches got merged for the clock_ syscalls, but I suppose it can all be explained again.

This is in the uapi header, and the structure just matches the existing timex definition, which has the same oddity.

struct timex is not y2038 safe. Replace all uses of timex with y2038 safe __kernel_timex.
Note that struct __kernel_timex is an ABI interface definition. We could define a new structure based on __kernel_timex that is only available internally instead. Right now, there isn't a strong motivation for this as the structure is isolated to a few defined struct timex interfaces and such a structure would be exactly the same as struct timex.

If it actually is an ABI interface it should probably have a different name.
struct timex is not y2038 safe. Switch all the syscall apis to use y2038 safe __kernel_timex.
Note that sys_adjtimex() does not have a y2038 safe solution. The api is meant to be deprecated on 32 bit machines after y2038.

struct timex is not y2038 safe. Switch all the syscall apis to use y2038 safe __kernel_timex.
So you switch existing syscalls to use a different structure. If this actually happens to be safe it needs a big explanation in the commit log.

And this unconditionally defines clock_adjtime, but doesn't actually seem to add callers, which looks rather odd. Same for other bits in the patch.

It really just moves compat_sys_clock_adjtime() into the same #ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME that hides the surrounding functions.
Currently CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME is used only as a subset of CONFIG_COMPAT, and the plan was to have 32-bit architectures enable it later so they could get access to all the functions implementing 32-bit time with a patch similar to what I'm testing with, see https://pastebin.com/F3QZdyin for the current draft that I use for testing.
We already spent several review rounds coming just discussing the naming of the macros etc before we decided on the CONFIG_64BIT_TIME and CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME symbol, but if you have a better suggestion (as part of moving away from the compat_ naming), we can change all that again.
