The ubd code suffers from a possible y2038 overflow on 32-bit architectures, both for the cow header and the os_file_modtime() function. Replace time_t with time64_t to extend the ubd_kern side as much as possible. Whether this makes a difference for the user side depends on the host libc implementation that may use either 32-bit or 64-bit time_t. For the cow file format, the header contains an unsigned 32-bit timestamp, which is good until y2106, passing this through a 'long long' gives us a consistent interpretation between 32-bit and 64-bit um kernels.

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.
