Lance Richardson 988bf7243e net: support compat 64-bit time in {s,g}etsockopt
For the x32 ABI, struct timeval has two 64-bit fields. However
the kernel currently interprets the user-space values used for
the SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO socket options as having a pair
of 32-bit fields.

When the seconds portion of the requested timeout is less than 2**32,
the seconds portion of the effective timeout is correct but the
microseconds portion is zero.  When the seconds portion of the
requested timeout is zero and the microseconds portion is non-zero,
the kernel interprets the timeout as zero (never timeout).

Fix by using 64-bit time for SO_RCVTIMEO/SO_SNDTIMEO as required
for the ABI.

The code included below demonstrates the problem.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
