The example is intended for int types, not for strings. So it is not a

In case of a 32 bit vDSO build the CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING and
CONFIG_X86_PPRO_FENCE options will increase the size of the generated

vsyscall_32.c has not much code in it and the only function map_vsyscall()

Hi,
again i want ask if there is a change to bring the patch back to tip

I also need a review of [Patch v22 10/12] x86: Add 32 bit VDSO time

Some more tests and acked-by would be also fine :-)

Hi,

As requested the glibc patch is now available at
http://seibold.net/glibc.patch
Any idea how to bring this patch into glibc? Is the process similar to
the kernel?

This patch is a small code cleanup for the __vdso_clock_gettime() function.
It removes the unneeded return values from do_monotonic_coarse() and
do_realtime_coarse() and add a fallback label for doing the kernel
