Adhemerval Zanella ffd178c651 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
copying for the 32 bit time_t implementation).

Two new structures are added:

  1. kernel_shmid64_ds: used internally only on 32-bit architectures
     to issue the syscall.  A handful of architectures (hppa, i386,
     mips, powerpc32, and sparc32) require specific implementations
     due to their kernel ABI.

  2. shmid_ds64: this is only for __TIMESIZE != 64 to use along with
     the 64-bit shmctl.  It is different than the kernel struct because
     the exported 64-bit time_t might require different alignment
     depending on the architecture ABI.

So the resulting implementation does:

  1. For 64-bit architectures it assumes shmid_ds already contains
     64-bit time_t fields and 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
     using 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.

README

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library.
See the file "version.h" for what release version you have.

The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems,
and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system.  It provides the
system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such
as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming
languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system.

In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to
implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications.
In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers.

The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the
GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu.

When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library
requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later.

Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be
installed for the pthread library to work correctly.

The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels:

	aarch64*-*-linux-gnu
	alpha*-*-linux-gnu
	arm-*-linux-gnueabi
	csky-*-linux-gnuabiv2
	hppa-*-linux-gnu
	i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu
	x86_64-*-linux-gnu	Can build either x86_64 or x32
	ia64-*-linux-gnu
	m68k-*-linux-gnu
	microblaze*-*-linux-gnu
	mips-*-linux-gnu
	mips64-*-linux-gnu
	powerpc-*-linux-gnu	Hardware or software floating point, BE only.
	powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu	Big-endian and little-endian.
	s390-*-linux-gnu
	s390x-*-linux-gnu
	riscv64-*-linux-gnu
	sh[34]-*-linux-gnu

If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc
maintainers; see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more
information.

See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install
the GNU C Library.  You might also consider reading the WWW pages for
the C library at https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/.

The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual
found in the `manual/' subdirectory.  The manual is still being updated
and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not
have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like.  For
corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component,
following the bug-reporting instructions below.  Please be sure to check
the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has
already been corrected.

Please see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting
information.  We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports.
This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly.

The GNU C Library is free software.  See the file COPYING.LIB for copying
conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require
these additional notices to be distributed.  License copyright years may be
listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in
the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed
individually.
