linux-toradex.git/arch/tile/kernel/vdso, branch v3.17 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules tile: Convert VDSO timekeeping to the precise mechanism 2014-07-23T17:16:50+00:00 Thomas Gleixner tglx@linutronix.de 2014-07-16T21:03:49+00:00 dc01c9fae1c5e40458c086a868d2028dfd6faebd The code was only halfarsed converted to the new VSDO update mechanism and still uses the inaccurate base value which lacks the fractional part of xtime_nsec. Fix it up. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>

tile: implement gettimeofday() via vDSO 2013-08-13T20:26:21+00:00 Chris Metcalf cmetcalf@tilera.com 2013-08-07T19:33:32+00:00 4a556f4f56da3110b27e265b79f0e7582115445c This change creates the framework for vDSO calls, makes the existing rt_sigreturn() mechanism use it, and adds a fast gettimeofday(). Now that we need to expose the vDSO address to userspace, we add AT_SYSINFO_EHDR to the set of aux entries provided to userspace. (You can disable any extra vDSO support by booting with vdso=0, but the rt_sigreturn vDSO page will still be provided.) Note that glibc has supported the tile vDSO since release 2.17.
