[PATCH 1/3] hfs: stop using timespec based interfaces

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Tue Jun 19 2018 - 12:02:38 EST


The native HFS timestamps overflow in year 2040, two years after the Unix
y2038 overflow. However, the way that the conversion between on-disk
timestamps and in-kernel timestamps was implemented, 64-bit machines
actually ended up converting negative UTC timestamps (1902 through 1969)
into times between 2038 and 2106.

Rather than making all machines faithfully represent timestamps in the
ancient past but break after 2040, this changes the file system to
always use the unsigned UTC interpretation, reading back times between
1970 and 2106.
