Subject: [musl] [PATCH] poll: fix timespec kernel ABI mismatch on 32-bit arches without SYS_poll
Date: Thu,  2 Mar 2023 08:16:56 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230302051656.260369-1-izbyshev@ispras.ru> (raw)

After migration to 64-bit time_t in struct timespec, passing it to
SYS_ppoll on arches where the syscall expects the 32-bit version of
the struct became wrong and results in overlaying 64-bit tv_sec over the
whole expected struct. In this case, tv_nsec is completely ignored, and
interpretation of tv_sec depends on endianness. Because its value in the
case of poll fits into 32 bits, on little endian arches tv_sec is
interpreted as the correct number of seconds and zero nanoseconds, so
the original timeout is effectively rounded down to seconds. On big
endian arches, tv_sec is interpreted as nanoseconds (and zero seconds),
so the original timeout is effectively divided by 10^9 and rounded down
to nanoseconds.

The only in-tree affected arch is or1k, which is big endian.

Fix this by passing the timeout in the array of the type actually
expected by the kernel for SYS_ppoll, as done in other time64-related
code.
