[PATCH] ocfs2: dlmglue: clean up timestamp handling

[PATCH] ocfs2: dlmglue: clean up timestamp handling

[Arnd Bergmann]

The handling of timestamps outside of the 1970..2038 range in the dlm
glue is rather inconsistent: on 32-bit architectures, this has always
wrapped around to negative timestamps in the 1902..1969 range, while on
64-bit kernels all timestamps are interpreted as positive 34 bit numbers
in the 1970..2514 year range.

Now that the VFS code handles 64-bit timestamps on all architectures,
we can make the behavior more consistent here, and return the same result
that we had on 64-bit already, making the file system y2038 safe in the
process. Outside of dlmglue, it already uses 64-bit on-disk timestamps
anway, so that part is fine.

For consistency, I'm changing ocfs2_pack_timespec() to clamp
anything outside of the supported range to the minimum and maximum
values. This avoids a possible ambiguity of values before 1970
in particular, which used to be interpreted as times at the end of the
2514 range previously.

Will all values written to LVB be the same with or without the patch?
I am considering the situation where in a cluster some machines have this
patch and some don't. Depending on that, this may require a version
change.

There is one part that may change:

Here, setting a timestamp before 1970 or after 2514 will get wrapped
around in unpatched kernels, but will be clamped to the minimum
and maximum times after the patch.

It is extremely rare for correct code to need timestamps outside of that
range, but it is also trivial to trigger that with a manual 'touch' command
from user space.

If the change is a problem, I can resend the patch without that one
line change.

I think you should keep the change, but incrment OCFS2_LVB_VERSION.

Won't that cause additional incompatibilities? I don't know how this
macro gets used, but normally we don't use version numbers in
kernel interfaces if that prevents us from using old user space code
with newer kernels.
