This patch series changes the 32-bit time type (timespec/itimerspec) to the 64-bit one
(timespec64/itimerspec64), since 32-bit time types will break in the year 2038.
This patch series introduces new methods with timespec64/itimerspec64 type,
and removes the old ones with timespec/itimerspec type for posix_clock_operations
and k_clock structure.
Also introduces some new functions with timespec64/itimerspec64 type, like current_kernel_time64(),
hrtimer_get_res64(), cputime_to_timespec64() and timespec64_to_cputime().
Changes since v2:
-Split the syscall conversion patch into small some patches.
Baolin Wang (22):
linux/time64.h:Introduce the 'struct itimerspec64' for 64bit
timekeeping:Introduce the current_kernel_time64() function with
timespec64 type
time/hrtimer:Introduce hrtimer_get_res64() with timespec64 type for
getting the timer resolution
posix-timers:Split out the guts of the syscall and change the
implementation for timer_gettime
posix-timers:Convert to the 64bit methods for the timer_gettime
syscall function
posix-timers:Split out the guts of the syscall and change the
implementation for timer_settime
posix-timers:Convert to the 64bit methods for the timer_settime
syscall function
posix-timers:Split out the guts of the syscall and change the
implementation for clock_settime
posix-timers:Convert to the 64bit methods for the clock_settime

function
time/alarmtimer:Convert to the new 64bit methods for k_clock
structure
time/posix-clock:Convert to the 64bit methods for k_clock and
posix_clock_operations structure
time/time:Introduce the timespec64_to_jiffies/jiffies_to_timespec64
function

function

structure
k_clock:Remove the 32bit methods with timespec/itimerspec type

I have two more very general comments about the series:
a) something has gone wrong with your submission in v2 and v3 but was
working earlier: normally all emails should be sent by git-send-email
as replies to the [patch 00/22] mail. This is the default, and it
is enabled by the '--thread --no-chain-reply' options. Please try
to get this to work again.
b) it would be better to have a little shorter subject lines, to avoid
line-wrapping in the list above. Here are some examples what you could
use to replace the lines above:
timekeeping: introduce struct itimerspec64
timekeeping: introduce current_kernel_time64()
hrtimer: introduce hrtimer_get_res64()
posix-timers: split up sys_timer_gettime()
posix-timers: convert timer_gettime() to timespec64
In general, try to come up with the shortest description that
uniquely describes what your patch does, and move any details into
the longer patch description.
