Subject: localtime and friends does not watch for timezone changes

Package: libc6
Version: 2.1.2-5

applications using localtime to acquire locale or timezone data are not
informed of a timezone switch. So, if you start and application that uses
strftime() for instance, then run tzconfig to change the timezone, the proper
time is not shown, instead the previous value is.

one:~/test_code$ ./time
Sun Oct 24 7:56 AM EDT EST,EDT
Sun Oct 24 7:56 AM EDT EST,EDT
< run tzconfig on another term >
Sun Oct 24 7:56 AM EDT EST,EDT

Sun Oct 24 7:57 AM EDT EST,EDT
Sun Oct 24 7:57 AM EDT EST,EDT
Sun Oct 24 7:57 AM EDT EST,EDT

note how time never changes

while (1) {
        tmp = time(NULL);
        tt = localtime(&tmp);
        strftime(t, 1024, "%a %b %e %l:%M %p %Z", tt);
        printf("%s %s,%s\n", t, tzname[0], tzname[1]);
        memset(t, '\0', 1024);
        sleep(1);
}

simple code I used to prove this exists.

If I can help, please contact me.

Well, the move from daylight savings time happened last night. Oddly enough,
all of my running clock applications caught this change. So there obviously is
a setting in there somewhere to tell localtime() and friends to re-read the
info.

Sean,

Heya - I'm just cleaning house on some of the glibc bugs. Basically,
it looks like there's alot of machinery in there to handle daylight
savings time, leap seconds, etc. It appears that the actual timezone
and such are cached as an optimizations. Is this unacceptable for
some reason? Without a strong argument, it's unlikely that I'll get
upstream to consider changing this.

Tks,
Jeff Bailey

I've also just hit this problem using a laptop while flying from
Amsterdam to London - and the two bugs are basically the same thing.

The problem is with the routine tzset_internal(int) in tzset.c in libc6.

It does the following:

  /* Examine the TZ environment variable. */
  tz = getenv ("TZ");
  if (tz == NULL)
    /* No user specification; use the site-wide default. */
    tz = TZDEFAULT;

[..]

  /* Check whether the value changes since the last run. */
  if (old_tz != NULL && tz != NULL && strcmp (tz, old_tz) == 0)
    /* No change, simply return. */
    return;

Now, TZDEFAULT is /etc/localtime, which is a symlink on a Debian system.
Thus, when you call tzset() (or localtime(), which calls it) after
changing the system timezone with tzconfig, it has absolutely no effect
- it really should be looking at the name of the target of the symlink,
not the name of the symlink itself.

The result of this is that changing the timezone effectively requires
rebooting the machine to ensure all processes detect the change.

There is a way around it: if the code has something like the following
in its inner loop:

        if (!getenv("TZ"))
        {
            putenv("TZ=GMT");
            tzset();
            putenv("TZ");
        }

this will force the code to reevaluate the timezone file - twice. This
is however CPU-inefficient and would require all programs on the system
that deal with time (from syslog to Evolution) to jump through this
hoop.

A better solution would be the following patch to tzset.c which checks
/etc/localtime for modification each time it is called:

If the GNOME clock people can put the inner loop patch at the start of
clock.c:update_clock(), this would fix the problem for GNOME clock, but
I would prefer to see libc6 fix it globally.

NB This has nothing to do with Daylight Saving Time, which works
perfectly - this is all about reconfiguring a running system (e.g. with
tzconfig) to change its default timezone, say from Europe/Amsterdam to
Europe/London.

Hi Ian,

I found your posting very helpful.

The bug still seems to be there at least under glibc 2.3.2 (redhat 9).
I noticed it in smartd (package: smartmontools) and have just fixed it in
the code.

One small item. I think your suggested inner loop block:
        if (!getenv("TZ"))
        {
            putenv("TZ=GMT");
            tzset();
            putenv("TZ");
        }

should read:
        if (!getenv("TZ"))
        {
            putenv("TZ=GMT");
            tzset();
            putenv("TZ");
            tzset();
         }
since you were flying to London, you might not have noticed this!

Cheers,
Bruce

It can be used in the internal of applications.

If we apply it, whenever we issue time related function, not only
time(2) but also lstat(2) is issued. Filesystem related operation is
slow (imagine floppy root fs!). Your request is very rare; most user
do not want such function performance drop.

Yes, application modification is the easiest way. And it make sense
when we imagine for example dynamic locale change. It needs
application modification.

If you want to support dynamic timezone switch eagerly, I think one
way to improve is adding new environment variable (ex: TZ_UPDATE). If
TZ_UPDATE is defined, then everytime tzset() checks timezone variable
through tzset() in each time. However one major drawback is user
needs to set TZ_UPDATE environment variable before he wants to use
dynamic timezone switch and before he invokes applications. So I
wonder it is really useful for most users.

You're correct. I'm surprised the performance degrade was happened
for "The 0.000001% of the people" (see BZ#154). Jakub was tested with

fixed-upstream.
