Re: [RFC v6 04/23] linux: Use 32-bit time_t for itimerval


Hi Alistair,

Please update the header info. I suppose you refer to setitimer here.

I think that Y2038 safe systems with __WORDSIZE == 32 && __TIMESIZE ==
32 (for now?) also could reuse this work.

To allow it this syscall wrapper shall be converted (written) in the
same way as e.g:

./sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/clock_settime.c

(the same issue is with getitimer).

Then only redirection when __USE_TIME_BITS64 is set are needed to use
__setitimer64/__getitimer64 on Y2038 safe systems.
