When running the test suite on 32-bit architectures that use 64-bit time_t
(e.g., modern armhf/i386 for Y2038 compliance), test_server_simple_timeouts
fails with OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument.
Steps to Reproduce
Run autopkgtest or pytest on a 32-bit system with a 64-bit time_t kernel. Run
tests/test_ssl.py::MiscSSLClientTestCase::test_server_simple_timeouts.
Actual Result (logs ->
https://objectstorage.prodstack5.canonical.com/swift/v1/AUTH_0f9aae918d5b4744bf7b827671c86842/autopkgtest-resolute/resolute/armhf/m/m2crypto/20260113_215730_4a505@/log.gz)
E OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/M2Crypto/SSL/Connection.py:689: OSError
The M2Crypto.SSL.timeout.timeout.pack() method uses struct.pack("ll", ...) when
m2.time_t_bits() == 64.
On standard 64-bit systems (x86_64), l is 8 bytes. ll = 16 bytes. (Correct)
On 32-bit systems, l is 4 bytes. ll = 8 bytes. (Incorrect)
The kernel expects a 16-byte struct timeval (two 64-bit integers) because of
the Y2038-compliant 64-bit time_t. Passing an 8-byte structure causes
setsockopt to reject the call with EINVAL.
Proposed Fix: Change the packing format from "ll" to "qq" (long long). This
forces 8-byte integers on all platforms, ensuring the structure is always 16
bytes when time_t is 64-bit.
