[PATCH] ppc64 utmp


Ensure that the structs utmp and utmpx are the same size in 32-/64-bit. 
Allows both 32- and 64-bit apps to read/write /var/run/utmp.	

We (the powerpc64 team) have made the explicit decision that __time_t
(and __suseconds_t) will be a 64-bits (long int) for the kernel and 64-bit 
applications.  This is a good decision for the future but can cause 
problems when 32- and 64-bit application share time_t values in shared 
memory or files.  

This is the case for /var/run/utmp where utilities that write these
files are currently 32-bit, but 64-bit applications that calls getlogin 
attempt to read this file.  The solution defines the anonymous struct field
ut_tv (with 32-bit fields tv_sec and tv_usec) within struct utmp and utmpx 
(when [__WORDSIZE == 64]). This makes ut_tv (and utmp) consistent between 
32- and 64-bit powerpc applications. 

There is also a problem with field ut_session (long int) within the utmp 
and utmpx structs which changes size between 32-and 64-bit.  So changed 
the type of ut_session to __int32_t.

We (powerpc) must have our own version of the these header files to 
enforce the new definitions, while maintaining compatibility with exiting 
powepc32 applications. Copied types.h and time.h from
./sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/bits/ into ./sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/bits.
Then copied utmp.h and utmpx.h from ./sysdeps/gnu/bits/ into
./sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/bits/. Then changed/added definitions as
described above.

Finally with these changes PowerPC64 applications can call getlogin and
get the correct result. However there is one final problem with
login/programs/utmpdump.c(print_entry) which generates the following 
compiler warnings:

programs/utmpdump.c: In function `print_entry':
programs/utmpdump.c:67: warning: passing arg 1 of `ctime' from incompatible pointer type
programs/utmpdump.c:72: warning: long int format, different type arg (arg 9)

In this case print_entry is passing &up->ut_tv.tv_sec (an __int32_t) to the
ctime functions (expecting a long). Also &up->ut_tv.tv_usec (an __int32_t)
is passed to printf with a format of "%ld". 

The solution is to declare a struct timeval temp_tv and copy the tv_sec
and tv_usec fields to the structure first. This is 32-/64-bit agnostic 
but will expand the __int32_t to longs if required to 64-bit. The temp_tv
fields can be safely passed to ctime and printf on any platform.


2002-09-30  Steven Munroe  <sjmunroe@us.ibm.com>

	* login/programs/utmpdump.c(print_entry): Copy up->ut_tv fields
	to struct timeval temp_tv before printing to be 32-/64-bit agnostic.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/bits/utmp.h: New file.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/bits/utmpx.h New file.
