    sysv: linux: Add 64-bit time_t variant for semctl
    
    Different than others 64-bit time_t syscalls, the SysIPC interface
    does not provide a new set of syscall for y2038 safeness.  Instead it
    uses ununsed fields in semid_ds structure the return the high bits for
    the timestamps.
    
    To provide a y2038 safe interface a new symbol __semctl64 is added
    internally and __semctl is change to call it instead.  It requires
    some extra buffer copy for the 32 bit time_t implementation, but
    it focus the syscall handling on the 64 bit symbol (as per others
    y2038 safe symbols).
    
    Checked on i686-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu.  I also did some sniff
    tests on powerpc, powerpc64, mips, mips64, and armhf.

commit feb2d33e22e2d86c92ae42e7dc92c3ba3eb88c85
Author: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
Date:   Tue Jun 30 14:08:22 2020 -0300

    sysv: linux: Add 64-bit time_t variant for shmctl
    
    To provide a y2038 safe interface a new symbol __shmctl64 is added
    and __shmctl is change to call it instead (it adds some extra buffer
    copy for the 32 bit time_t implementation).
    
    Two two new structures are added:
    
      1. kernel_shmid64_ds: used internally only on 32-bit architectures
         to issue the syscall.  A handful architectures (hppa, i386, mips,
         powerpc32, and sparc32) requires specific implementation due its
         specific kernel ABI.
    
      2. shmid_ds64: this is only for __TIMESIZE != 64 to use along with
         the 64-bit semctl.  It is different than the kernel one because
         the exported 64-bit time_t might require different alignment
         depending of the architecture ABI.
    
    So the resulting implementation does:
    
      1. For 64-bit architectures it assumes shmid_ds already contains
         64-bit time_t fields it will result in just the __shmctl symbol
         using the __shmctl64 code.  The shmid_ds argument is passed as-is
         to the syscall.
    
      2. For 32-bit architectures with default 64-bit time_t (newer ABIs
         such riscv32 or arc), it will also result in only one exported
         symbol but with the required high/low time handling.
    
      3. Finally for 32-bit architecture with both 32-bit and 64-bit time_t
         support we follow the already set way to provide one symbol with
         64-bit time_t support and implement the 32-bit time_t support on
         basis of the 64-bit one.
    
         The default 32-bit symbol will allocate and copy the shmid_ds
         over multiple buffers, but this should be deprecated in favor
         of the __shmctl64 anyway.
    
    Checked on i686-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu.  I also did some sniff
    tests on powerpc, powerpc64, mips, mips64, armhf, sparcv9, and
    sparc64.

      1. kernel_semid64_ds: used internally only on 32-bit architectures
         to issue the syscall.  A handful architectures (hppa, i386, mips,
         powerpc32, sparc32) requires specific implementation due its
         specific kernel ABI.
    
      2. semid_ds64: this is only for __TIMESIZE != 64 to used along with
         the 64-bit semctl.  It is different than the kernel one because
         the exported 64-bit time_t might require different alignment
         depending of the architecture ABI.
    
    So the resulting implementation does:
    
      1. For 64-bit architectures it assumes semid_ds already contains
         64-bit time_t fields it will result in just the __semctl symbol
         using the __semctl64 code.  The semid_ds argument is passed as-is
         to the syscall.
    
      2. For 32-bit architectures with default 64-bit time_t (newer ABIs
         such riscv32 or arc), it will also result in only one symbol
         but with the required high/low handling.
    
         It might be possible to optimize it further to avoid the
         kernel_semid64_ds to semun transformation if the exported glibc ABI
         for the architectures matches the expected kernel ABI, but the
         implementation is already complex enough and don't think this
         should be a hotspot in any case.
    
      3. Finally for 32-bit architecture with both 32-bit and 64-bit time_t
         support we follow the already set way to provide one symbol with
         64-bit time_t support and implement the 32-bit time_t support on
         basis of the 64-bit one.
    
         The default 32-bit symbol will allocate and copy the semid_ds
         over multiple buffers, but this should be deprecated in favor
         of the __semctl64 anyway.
    
    Checked on i686-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu.  I also did some sniff
    tests on powerpc, powerpc64, mips, mips64, and armhf.

    sysvipc: Split out linux struct semid_ds
    
    This will allow us to have architectures specify their own version.

commit e86a547a357f896485d637ff1663a6ee924d1ad6

    sysv: linux: Add 64-bit time_t variant for semctl
    
    Different than others 64-bit time_t syscalls, the SysIPC interface
    does not provide a new set of syscall for y2038 safeness.  Instead it
    uses ununsed fields in semid_ds structure the return the high bits for
    the timestamps.
    
    To provide a y2038 safe interface a new symbol __semctl64 is added
    internally and __semctl is change to call it instead.  It requires
    some extra buffer copy for the 32 bit time_t implementation, but
    it focus the syscall handling on the 64 bit symbol (as per others
    y2038 safe symbols).
    
    Two two new structures are added:
    
      1. kernel_semid64_ds: used internally only on 32-bit architectures
         to issue the syscall.  A handful architectures (hppa, i386, mips,
         powerpc32, sparc32) requires specific implementation due its
         specific kernel ABI.
    
      2. semid_ds64: this is only for __TIMESIZE != 64 to used along with
         the 64-bit semctl.  It is different than the kernel one because
         the exported 64-bit time_t might require different alignment
         depending of the architecture ABI.
    
    So the resulting implementation does:
    
      1. For 64-bit architectures it assumes semid_ds already contains
         64-bit time_t fields it will result in just the __semctl symbol
         using the __semctl64 code.  The semid_ds argument is passed as-is
         to the syscall.
    
      2. For 32-bit architectures with default 64-bit time_t (newer ABIs
         such riscv32 or arc), it will also result in only one symbol
         but with the required high/low handling.
    
         It might be possible to optimize it further to avoid the
         kernel_semid64_ds to semun transformation if the exported glibc ABI
         for the architectures matches the expected kernel ABI, but the

         should be a hotspot in any case.

         64-bit time_t support and implement the 32-bit time_t support on
         basis of the 64-bit one.
    
         The default 32-bit symbol will allocate and copy the semid_ds
         over multiple buffers, but this should be deprecated in favor
         of the __semctl64 anyway.
