Hi Nathan,
While trying to switch powerpc VDSO to C version of gettimeofday(), I'm
getting the following kind of error with vdsotest:
passing NULL to clock_getres (VDSO): terminated by unexpected signal 11
Looking at commit a9446a906f52 ("lib/vdso/32: Remove inconsistent NULL
pointer checks"), it seems that signal 11 is expected when passing NULL
pointer.
Any plan to fix vdsotest ?
Passing NULL to clock_getres is valid, and required to return
successfully if the clock id is valid.
Do you mean the following commit is wrong ?
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/lib/vdso?id=a9446a906f52292c52ecbd5be78eaa4d8395756c
If it causes a valid call to clock_getres to fail, then yes.
Andreas.
