proposed time zone package changes (Samoa, Factory, et al.)
by Arthur David Olson 28 Aug '19

28 Aug '19

Below find proposed time zone package changes; the executive summary: * Makefile Change LOCALTIME default from "Factory" to "GMT"; do not compile "factory" file (but keep it in the distribution). * Theory Remove reference to "Factory" zone. * australasia Change end of DST in Samoa in 2011 from 2011-04-03 0:00 to 2011-04-03 1:00 (thanks to Raymond Hughes for a reference). * localtime.c Initialize ttinfo structures filled by tzparse (thanks to Ravindra for reporting a valgrind warning). * zic.c Fix generation of POSIX strings for zones with rules using "weekday<=n" forms of dates (thanks to Lei Liu for finding the problem). Also, limit output for non-POSIX-specificable zones defined to follow the same rules every year. (Note that no zones of either of the above types appear in the distribution; these changes cater to add-on zones). If no problems are found, 2010n will appear on 2010-10-25. --ado diff -r -c old/Makefile new/Makefile *** old/Makefile Mon Sep 27 09:24:25 2010 --- new/Makefile Tue Oct 12 12:36:50 2010 *************** *** 1,5 **** # <pre> ! # @(#)Makefile 8.8 # This file is in the public domain, so clarified as of # 2009-05-17 by Arthur David Olson. --- 1,5 ---- # <pre> ! # @(#)Makefile 8.9 # This file is in the public domain, so clarified as of # 2009-05-17 by Arthur David Olson. *************** *** 12,18 **** # make zonenames # to get a list of the values you can use for LOCALTIME. !

Alberta Tory leadership candidate petitions to drop DST and move to CT
by Brian Inglis 19 Sep '17

19 Sep '17

On the final day of the fall sitting on Tuesday, Alberta Progressive Conservative leadership candidate, Vermilion-Lloydminster MLA Richard Starke presented a petition to the legislature calling for repeal of the Daylight Saving Time Act and a move to Central Time (from Mountain Time), to be decided by a referendum. The stories linked below are all from the same news org and under the same byline. The latter two have a vote button at the bottom to poll readers' opinions, each currently running about 80/20 in favour of dropping DST, and/or possibly also of switching to permanent CT, depending on whether the voters read the question or just clicked. http://calgaryherald.com/news/politics/pc-leadership-candidate-starke-calls… http://www.edmontonjournal.com/news/politics/leadership+candidate+starke+ca… http://www.calgarysun.com/2016/12/14/to-keep-or-ditch-daylight-saving-time-… http://www.edmontonsun.com/2016/12/14/to-keep-or-ditch-daylight-saving-time… -- Take care. Thanks, Brian Inglis, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Hi, I’ve created some tzdata syntax highlighting rules for the Sublime Text editor: https://packagecontrol.io/packages/zoneinfo <https://packagecontrol.io/packages/zoneinfo> I have no idea if anyone other than me uses that particular text editor for looking at tzdata files. But I thought I’d mention it just in case it’s useful to someone. Cheers, Gil

Re: [tz] question about mktime_tzname()
by Kees Dekker 14 Mar '17

14 Mar '17

Hi, Can anyone help me? In short, I set TZ to EST5EDT,M4.1.0/02:00,M10.5.0/02:00, which means daylight saving for EST (=GMT-5 or GMT-4 if DST is active), with switching DST at first Sunday of April and move to standard time at the last Sunday of October. The input to mktime is (See also attached source code) 1-1-1970, 19:00h (tm_min=1140 = 1140/60 = 19h) local EST time and tm_isdst set to -1. Because of this value, the tz code should figure out that 1-1-1970 is not in DST so the time difference with GMT/UTC is 5 hours. I would exect then mktime() to return 0. This is true if I use the system functions, but mktime() returns -3600 when using the tz library. The output of running the test case with system libraries is: ./tztestcase enter mktime with: 1970/Jan/00 00:1140:00, week day: -858993460, year day: -858993460, dst: -1 the return value of mktime is: 0 normalized times: 1969/Dec/31 19:00:00, week day: Wed, year day: 364, dst: 0 The output of the test case with the tz lib is: ./tztestcase2016j enter mktime with: 1970/Jan/00 00:1140:00, week day: -858993460, year day: -858993460, dst: -1 the return value of mktime is: -3600 normalized times: 1969/Dec/31 19:00:00, week day: Wed, year day: 364, dst: 1 Please correct me if I'm wrong. Is this a bug in the tz code? Please note the differences. From: Kees Dekker Sent: Thursday, January 05, 2017 15:03 To: 'tz(a)iana.org' <tz(a)iana.org> Subject: question about mktime_tzname() Hi, I'm running into a potential bug. Please also see the attached C-source file for a reproduction. Reproduction steps: 1. Build tz code, in such way that a libtz.a exists 2. Compile attached source with (e.g. on Linux): gcc -g -o tztestcase2016j tztestcase.c -L <tzlibdir> -ltz 3. Checking the same test case source code with a system library (instead of IANA libtz.a) can be achieved by omitting -L and -l flags in previous command (see #2). It does not make much sense which version of tzcode is used, I tried 2013i and 2016j and both show the same behavior. The mktime() code returns -3600, while I expect 0. Because the TZ zone is explicitly specified, EST5EDT is GMT-5. So the provided time stamp (31-Jan-1969, 19:00) is exactly the same as UTC value 0 (1-Jan-1970, 00:00 GMT). Both Linux and Windows with system libraries return 0 in this specific case (I used these for reference). The remainder of this email is based on the tzcode2016j source code (e.g. for used line numbers). The provided TZ value is parsed in tzparse() and results in sp->ttis[0] set as DST value, and sp->ttis[1] as standard time value. This is at least contrary to in the else part of the if (*name == ',' || *name == ';') block (there DST is saved in sp->ttis[1]). Just grep on init_ttinfo() calls in localtime.c. However, in localsub(), around line 1428, the i becomes sp->defaulttype (which is zero), i.e. points to the DST value of sp->ttis[], which is assigned to ttisp. As result, because t is below sp->ats[0], DST takes into effect, which is incorrect, as everything after the last Sunday in October and before the first Sunday in April (see attachment, TZ="EST5EDT,M4.1.0/02:00,M10.5.0/02:00") is assumed to be standard time. I'm not sure whether I draw the right conclusion, but because the incorrect assumption of using DST, mktime() returns -3600 (on hour off) instead of the expected 0. Is this conclusion correct? I'm not sure how to fix it. When changing the call to init_ttinfo() and effectively swapping DST and standard time (also for symmetry with the else part) in sp-ttis[] (0 to 1 and 1 to 0) + keeping sp->defaulttype = 0 solved this problem, but introduces other conversion errors around DSTchanges (I don't have yet an reproduction, but can make one if needed). The sp->default type is used (in localsub ()) when if (sp->timecnt == 0 || t < sp->ats[0]). The other approach is to assign sp->defaulttype = 1 when the init_ttinfo() calls are not swapped. Anyhow, there is a tight relationship between the value of sp->defaulttype and the order in which DST/standard times are written in sp->ttis[]. If the previous idea is incorrect (and I guess it is), additional code may be needed in time2sub() if yourtm.tm_isdst == -1. In that case, the provided data in yourtm should be checked whether DST is (or is not) into effect. The found mytm struct should match. Otherwise a DST correction is needed (one-hour shift). The current code mistakenly uses DST, and that is why (if I understand all well) mktime() now returns -3600. If I was not able to explain the issue correctly, please let me know. I'm not sure to understand what's going wrong now, but may be, the provided attachment will help in giving better understanding. Because the provided date is near 1970, quite few steps are needed to see what's happing in localtime.c. Regards, Kees Dekker PS. This email has been sent assuming that attachments will not get lost. Otherwise, just copy paste the code below and save to e.g. tztestcase.c. #ifdef _WIN32 #define _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS #endif #include <time.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main(void) { int ret = 0; const char *months[] = { "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "April", "May", "June", "July", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec" }; const char *days[] = { "Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Tur", "Fri", "Sat" }; /* DST switch in April in first Sunday and October, last Sunday */ putenv("TZ=EST5EDT,M4.1.0/02:00,M10.5.0/02:00"); /* January, 1970, invalid input for tm_mday (0 instead 1..31) */ /* non-normalized input for minutes: 1140/60 = 19, so 19:00 EST5EDT time, which is 5 hours before GMT, and should result in t == 0 below */ /* let system figure out whether DST is effect */ struct tm tmp = { 0, 1140, 0, 0, 0, 70, -858993460, -858993460, -1}; printf("enter mktime with: %04d/%s/%02d %02d:%02d:%02d, week day: %d, year day: %d, dst: %d\n", tmp.tm_year + 1900, months[tmp.tm_mon], tmp.tm_mday, tmp.tm_hour, tmp.tm_min, tmp.tm_sec, tmp.tm_wday, tmp.tm_yday, tmp.tm_isdst); time_t t = mktime(&tmp); /* expect: t == 0, DST is off, time is exactly at the boundary of lowest possible UTC value */ printf("the return value of mktime is: %lld\n", (long long)t); printf("normalized times: %04d/%s/%02d %02d:%02d:%02d, week day: %s, year day: %d, dst: %d\n", tmp.tm_year + 1900, months[tmp.tm_mon], tmp.tm_mday, tmp.tm_hour, tmp.tm_min, tmp.tm_sec, days[tmp.tm_wday], tmp.tm_yday, tmp.tm_isdst); if (t >= 0) { printf("tz=%s, %s\n", tzname[0], tzname[1]); } return 0; }

[tz-announce] 2017a release of tz code and data available
by Paul Eggert 28 Feb '17

28 Feb '17

The 2017a release of the tz code and data is available. It reflects the following changes, which were either circulated on the tz mailing list or are relatively minor technical or administrative changes: Briefly: Southern Chile moves from -04/-03 to -03, and Mongolia discontinues DST. Changes to future time stamps Mongolia no longer observes DST. (Thanks to Ganbold Tsagaankhuu.) Chile's Region of Magallanes moves from -04/-03 to -03 year-round. Its clocks diverge from America/Santiago starting 2017-05-13 at 23:00, hiving off a new zone America/Punta_Arenas. Although the Chilean government says this change expires in May 2019, for now assume it's permanent. (Thanks to Juan Correa and Deborah Goldsmith.) This also affects Antarctica/Palmer. Changes to past time stamps Fix many entries for historical time stamps for Europe/Madrid before 1979, to agree with tables compiled by Pere Planesas of the National Astronomical Observatory of Spain. As a side effect, this changes some time stamps for Africa/Ceuta before 1929, which are probably guesswork anyway. (Thanks to Steve Allen and Pierpaolo Bernardi for the heads-ups, and to Michael Deckers for correcting the 1901 transition.) Ecuador observed DST from 1992-11-28 to 1993-02-05. (Thanks to Alois Treindl.) Asia/Atyrau and Asia/Oral were at +03 (not +04) before 1930-06-21. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Changes to past and future time zone abbreviations Switch to numeric time zone abbreviations for South America, as part of the ongoing project of removing invented abbreviations. This avoids the need to invent an abbreviation for the new Chilean new zone. Similarly, switch from invented to numeric time zone abbreviations for Afghanistan, American Samoa, the Azores, Bangladesh, Bhutan, the British Indian Ocean Territory, Brunei, Cape Verde, Chatham Is, Christmas I, Cocos (Keeling) Is, Cook Is, Dubai, East Timor, Eucla, Fiji, French Polynesia, Greenland, Indochina, Iran, Iraq, Kiribati, Lord Howe, Macquarie, Malaysia, the Maldives, Marshall Is, Mauritius, Micronesia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nauru, Nepal, New Caledonia, Niue, Norfolk I, Palau, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Pitcairn, Qatar, Réunion, St Pierre & Miquelon, Samoa, Saudi Arabia, Seychelles, Singapore, Solomon Is, Tokelau, Tuvalu, Wake, Vanuatu, Wallis & Futuna, and Xinjiang; for 20-minute daylight saving time in Ghana before 1943; for half-hour daylight saving time in Belize before 1944 and in the Dominican Republic before 1975; and for Canary Islands before 1946, for Guinea-Bissau before 1975, for Iceland before 1969, for Indian Summer Time before 1942, for Indonesia before around 1964, for Kenya before 1960, for Liberia before 1973, for Madeira before 1967, for Namibia before 1943, for the Netherlands in 1937-9, for Pakistan before 1971, for Western Sahara before 1977, and for Zaporozhye in 1880-1924. For Alaska time from 1900 through 1967, instead of "CAT" use the abbreviation "AST", the abbreviation commonly used at the time (Atlantic Standard Time had not been standardized yet). Use "AWT" and "APT" instead of the invented abbreviations "CAWT" and "CAPT". Use "CST" and "CDT" instead of invented abbreviations for Macau before 1999 and Taiwan before 1938, and use "JST" instead of the invented abbreviation "JCST" for Japan and Korea before 1938. Change to database entry category Move the Pacific/Johnston link from 'australasia' to 'backward', since Johnston is now uninhabited. Changes to code zic no longer mishandles some transitions in January 2038 when it attempts to work around Qt bug 53071. This fixes a bug affecting Pacific/Tongatapu that was introduced in zic 2016e. localtime.c now contains a workaround, useful when loading a file generated by a buggy zic. (Problem and localtime.c fix reported by Bradley White.) zdump -i now outputs non-hour numeric time zone abbreviations without a colon, e.g., "+0530" rather than "+05:30". This agrees with zic %z and with common practice, and simplifies auditing of zdump output. zdump is now buildable again with -DUSE_LTZ=0. (Problem reported by Joseph Myers.) zdump.c now always includes private.h, to avoid code duplication with private.h. (Problem reported by Kees Dekker.) localtime.c no longer mishandles early or late timestamps when TZ is set to a POSIX-style string that specifies DST. (Problem reported by Kees Dekker.) date and strftime now cause %z to generate "-0000" instead of "+0000" when the UT offset is zero and the time zone abbreviation begins with "-". Changes to documentation and commentary The 'Theory' file now better documents choice of historical time zone abbreviations. (Problems reported by Michael Deckers.) tz-link.htm now covers leap smearing, which is popular in clouds.
