Commit Message

Adhemerval Zanella Dec. 17, 2019, 9:47 p.m. UTC
This patch avoid probing the __NR_clock_getttime64 syscall each time
__clock_gettime64 is issued on a kernel without 64 bit time support.
Once ENOSYS is obtained, only 32-bit clock_gettime are used.

The following snippet:

  clock_gettime (CLOCK_REALTIME, &(struct timespec) { 0 });
  clock_gettime (CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &(struct timespec) { 0 });
  clock_gettime (CLOCK_BOOTTIME, &(struct timespec) { 0 });
  clock_gettime (20, &(struct timespec) { 0 });

On a kernel without 64 bit time support and with vDSO support results
on the following syscalls:

  syscall_0x193(0, 0xff87ba30, [...]) = -1 ENOSYS (Function not implemented)
  clock_gettime(CLOCK_BOOTTIME, {tv_sec=927082, tv_nsec=474382032}) = 0
  clock_gettime(0x14 /* CLOCK_??? */, 0xff87b9f8) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

While on a kernel without vDSO support:

  syscall_0x193(0, 0xbec95550, 0xb6ed2000, 0x1, 0xbec95550, 0) = -1 (errno 38)
  clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME, {tv_sec=1576615930, tv_nsec=638250162}) = 0
  clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {tv_sec=1665478, tv_nsec=638779620}) = 0
  clock_gettime(CLOCK_BOOTTIME, {tv_sec=1675418, tv_nsec=292932704}) = 0
  clock_gettime(0x14 /* CLOCK_??? */, 0xbec95530) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

Checked on i686-linux-gnu on 4.15 kernel.

Just != 0 should be enough.
