[PATCH] Add getnstimestamp function
There are several functions that might seem appropriate for a timestamp: get_cycles() current_kernel_time() do_gettimeofday() <read jiffies/jiffies_64> Each has problems with combinations of SMP-safety, low resolution, and monotonicity. This patch adds a new function that returns a monotonic SMP-safe timestamp with nanosecond resolution where available. Changes: Split timestamp into separate patch Moved to kernel/time.c Renamed to getnstimestamp Fixed unintended-pointer-arithmetic bug Signed-off-by: Matt Helsley <matthltc@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
