I wrote up a Q&D C program on a z/OS 2.2 system. The output shows:
:JOARMC:/u/joarmc/junk$
./test-time
rc=0 timeval=Thu Nov 3 14:44:07 2016
rc=0 timeval=Thu Nov 3 14:44:07 2016
:JOARMC:/u/joarmc/junk$
./test-time
rc=0 timeval=Thu Nov 3 14:44:23 2016
rc=0 timeval=Thu Nov 3 14:44:23 2016
:JOARMC:/u/joarmc/junk$
TZ=CET-1CEST,M3.5.0,M10.5.0 ./test-time
rc=0 timeval=Thu Nov 3 20:44:27 2016
rc=0 timeval=Thu Nov 3 20:44:27 2016
:JOARMC:/u/joarmc/junk$
TZ=CET-1CEST ./test-time
rc=0 timeval=Thu Nov 3 21:44:36 2016
rc=0 timeval=Thu Nov 3 21:44:36 2016
Note that I got the TZ=CEST-1CEDT,M3.5.0,M10.5.0 from the IBM site:
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS2RWS_1.11.0/com.ibm.zsecure.doc_1.11/zsec111_install104.html
Using the TZ above got what appears to be the correct answer.
What I think this means is that whatever is determining the "switch over"
date on z/OS UNIX is not set up correctly.
The code I used is:
#define _LARGE_TIME_API
#define _ALL_SOURCE
#define _POSIX
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stddef.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
struct timeval64 tp1;
struct timeval64 tp2;
int rc;
rc=gettimeofday64(&tp1,NULL);
printf("rc=%d\ttimeval=%s\n",rc,ctime64(&tp1.tv_sec));
tzset();
rc=gettimeofday64(&tp1,NULL);
printf("rc=%d\ttimeval=%s\n",rc,ctime64(&tp1.tv_sec));
}
