<title>y2038: linux: Provide __adjtime64 implementation</title>

<id>0308077e3a4ff1c123cdddd311f55a2ecdd3115c</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch provides new __adjtime64 explicit 64 bit function for adjusting
Linux kernel clock.

Internally, the __clock_adjtime64 syscall is used instead of __adjtimex. This
patch is necessary for having architectures with __WORDSIZE == 32 Y2038 safe.

Moreover, a 32 bit version - __adjtime has been refactored to internally use
__adjtime64.

The __adjtime is now supposed to be used on systems still supporting 32
bit time (__TIMESIZE != 64) - hence the necessary conversions between struct
timeval and 64 bit struct __timeval64.

Build tests:
./src/scripts/build-many-glibcs.py glibcs

Run-time tests:
- Run specific tests on ARM/x86 32bit systems (qemu):
  https://github.com/lmajewski/meta-y2038 and run tests:
  https://github.com/lmajewski/y2038-tests/commits/master

Above tests were performed with Y2038 redirection applied as well as without to
test the proper usage of both __adjtime64 and __adjtime.

<content type='text'>
Consolidate generic gettimeofday implementation to use clock_gettime.
Linux ports that still provide gettimeofday through vDSO are not
changed.

Remove sysdeps/unix/clock_gettime.c, which implemented clock_gettime
using gettimeofday; new OS ports must provide a real implementation of
clock_gettime.

Rename sysdeps/mach/gettimeofday.c to sysdeps/mach/clock_gettime.c and
convert into an implementation of clock_gettime.  It only supports
CLOCK_REALTIME; Mach does not appear to have any support for monotonic
clocks.  It uses __host_get_time, which provides at best microsecond
resolution.  Hurd is currently using sysdeps/posix/clock_getres.c for
clock_getres; its output for CLOCK_REALTIME is based on
sysconf (_SC_CLK_TCK), and I do not know whether that gives the
correct result.

Unlike settimeofday, there are no known uses of gettimeofday's
vestigial "get time zone" feature that are not bugs.  (The per-process
timezone support in localtime and friends is unrelated, and the
programs that set the kernel's offset between the hardware clock and
UTC do not need to read it back.)  Therefore, this feature is dummied
out.  Henceforth, if gettimeofday's "struct timezone" argument is not
NULL, it will write zeroes to both fields.  Any program that is
actually looking at this data will thus think it is running in UTC,
which is probably more correct than whatever it was doing before.

[__]gettimeofday no longer has any internal callers, so we can now
remove its internal prototype and PLT bypass aliases.  The
__gettimeofday@GLIBC_2.0 export remains, in case it is used by any
third-party code.

It also allows to simplify the arch-specific implementation on x86 and
powerpc to remove the hack to disable the internal route to non iFUNC
variant for internal symbol.

This patch also fixes a missing optimization on aarch64, powerpc, and
x86 where the code used on static build do not use the vDSO.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, powerpc64le-linux-gnu,
powerpc64-linux-gnu, powerpc-linux-gnu, and aarch64-linux-gnu.

<content type='text'>
Unconditionally, on all ports, use clock_settime to implement
settimeofday.  Remove sysdeps/unix/clock_settime.c, which implemented
clock_settime by calling settimeofday; new OS ports must henceforth
provide a real implementation of clock_settime.

Hurd had a real implementation of settimeofday but not of
clock_settime; this patch converts it into an implementation of
clock_settime.  It only supports CLOCK_REALTIME and microsecond
resolution; Hurd/Mach does not appear to have any support for
finer-resolution clocks.

The vestigial "set time zone" feature of settimeofday complicates the
generic settimeofday implementation a little.  The only remaining uses
of this feature that aren't just bugs, are using it to inform the
Linux kernel of the offset between the hardware clock and UTC, on
systems where the hardware clock doesn't run in UTC (usually because
of dual-booting with Windows).  There currently isn't any other way to
do this.  However, the callers that do this call settimeofday with
_only_ the timezone argument non-NULL.  Therefore, glibc's new
behavior is: callers of settimeofday must supply one and only one of
the two arguments.  If both arguments are non-NULL, or both arguments
are NULL, the call fails and sets errno to EINVAL.

When only the timeval argument is supplied, settimeofday calls
__clock_settime(CLOCK_REALTIME), same as stime.

When only the timezone argument is supplied, settimeofday calls a new
internal function called __settimezone.  On Linux, only, this function
will pass the timezone structure to the settimeofday system call.  On
all other operating systems, and on Linux architectures that don't
define __NR_settimeofday, __settimezone is a stub that always sets
errno to ENOSYS and returns -1.

The settimeoday syscall is enabled on Linux by the flag
COMPAT_32BIT_TIME, which is an option to either 32-bits ABIs or COMPAT
builds (defined usually by 64-bit kernels that want to support 32-bit
 ABIs, such as x86).  The idea to future 64-bit time_t only ABIs
is to not provide settimeofday syscall.

The same semantics are implemented for Linux/Alpha's GLIBC_2.0 compat
symbol for settimeofday.

There are no longer any internal callers of __settimeofday, so the
internal prototype is removed.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, powerpc64le-linux-gnu,
powerpc64-linux-gnu, powerpc-linux-gnu, and aarch64-linux-gnu.
