The memory mapped packet socket data structure in version 1 through 3 all contain 32-bit second values for the packet time stamps, which makes them suffer from the overflow of time_t in y2038 or y2106 (depending on whether user space interprets the value as signed or unsigned). The implementation uses the deprecated getnstimeofday() function. In order to get rid of that, this changes the code to use ktime_get_real_ts64() as a replacement, documenting the nature of the overflow. As long as the user applications treat the timestamps as unsigned, or only use the difference between timestamps, they are fine, and changing the timestamps to 64-bit wouldn't require a more invasive user space API change. Note: a lot of other APIs suffer from incompatible structures when time_t gets redefined to 64-bit in 32-bit user space, but this one does not.

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.
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.
