Both 32-bit amd 64-bit ARM use the asm-generic header files for their sysvipc data structures, so no special care is needed to make those work beyond y2038, with the one exception of compat mode: Since there is no asm-generic definition of the compat mode IPC structures, ARM64 provides its own copy, and we make those match the changes in the native asm-generic header files. There is sufficient padding in these data structures to extend all timestamps to 64 bit, but on big-endian ARM kernels, the padding is in the wrong place, so the C library has to ensure it reassembles a 64-bit time_t correctly.

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.
