'struct video_event' is used for the VIDEO_GET_EVENT ioctl, implemented by drivers/media/pci/ivtv/ivtv-ioctl.c and drivers/media/pci/ttpci/av7110_av.c. The structure contains a 'time_t', which will be redefined in the future to be 64-bit wide, causing an incompatible ABI change for this ioctl. As it turns out, neither of the drivers currently sets the timestamp field, and it is presumably useless anyway because of the limited resolutions (no sub-second times). This means we can simply change the structure definition to use a 'long' instead of 'time_t' and remain compatible with all existing user space binaries when time_t gets changed. If anybody ever starts using this field, they have to make sure not to use 1970 based seconds in there, as those overflow in 2038.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
