Ok and thx for the job of csky subsystem.

We support uclibc-ng and glibc.

1. For uclibc-ng, linux-4.20 could run with it.

2. For glibc, Maybe we could support 32-bit + 64-bit time_t with
KERNEL_VERSION, or just only 64-bit then linux-4.20 couldn't work with
the csky first glibc release.

Best Regards
