This is a follow-up to the y2038 syscall patches already merged in the tip tree. As the final 32-bit RISC-V syscall ABI is still being decided on, this is the last chance to make a few corrections to leave out interfaces based on 32-bit time_t along with the old off_t and rlimit types. The series achieves this in a few steps: - A couple of bug fixes for minor regressions I introduced in the original series - A couple of older patches from Yury Norov that I had never merged in the past, these fix up the openat/open_by_handle_at and getrlimit/setrlimit syscalls to disallow the old versions of off_t and rlimit. - Hiding the deprecated system calls behind an #ifdef in include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h - Change arch/riscv to drop all these ABIs. Originally, the plan was to also leave these out on C-Sky, but that now has a glibc port that uses the older interfaces, so we need to leave them in place. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAABCAAGBQJcdEhGAAoJEGCrR//JCVInQuUQAN+mRFzRXAqhbpb63/vYGJei nmDqB+SoxzaIKAIGAVIdMGUoFxBrY1oyS4m6/a9lzQ9G4aSkr0PruZnUID+vIo2h rj+3FBlB/c9nvW+NG8iEtVadlRbTmoRILCWpvgIuLNd6fwvNzP3V4uu6a1QRIMx4 aUCWQfhzv18kW1EAPIroPA1gEL2HKbhDdEuN2V0SKnsKNiWkHQeswWQFAYpLgT36 eZ+L52lh+miEdtBxycxJ5lh3KsWO4dPImh+QHONZgeB9iS8v47K0R6ONKm4NMeQV 5KW55pepUq1uQUdEU9KRrh2krMih2IJbOQoN2lvb2ao5UG6erHbj0N55RQym5gSC +TrvP3dnqfohh9hWdHDwME+5OTeOM+8SUMRnaZBJKuywzo7W1ceLpf+KZjwlk2s5 AgEX67fKrUbtBfTgVhzlYhJLWcgSD1yt64ed5SF15c5M3JZhkK8cd50dB9pM2/YB o9VbijkYwb2KyCNUiV3nghgiiqcROvOIO7PK6z3XFFiRm/Gn2CgNZyZa7c4+Vgrr PM/DmDvCdFqYnqBOlV2ilCLigKGN0JgwzMXnbQU77d71Yg7Bco8e/yqSucSilp2d lEv44extu9FINWXIqvWEjRqdSq+sNgj21VSp6Zu/GaTgNCQKac2wsAZtnQgnslko knKwwp525fjqnJEDd1aH =/iFA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'y2038-syscall-abi' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground into timers/2038 Pull additional syscall ABI cleanup for y2038 from Arnd Bergmann: This is a follow-up to the y2038 syscall patches already merged in the tip tree.

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.
