Fast gettimeofday(2) and static linking

2013-01-25 Thread Konstantin Belousov
Bruce Evans reported that statically linked binaries on HEAD an stable/9 use the syscall for gettimeofday(2) and clock_gettime(2). Apparently, this is due to my use of the weak reference to the __vdso* symbols in the libc implementations. Patch below reworks the __vdso* attributes to only make the
