From: Nathan Lynch Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2015 21:10:43 +0000 (+0000) Subject: ARM: VDSO support X-Git-Tag: upstream/2.24~1538 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b65d3e5f0f452e86f81d21d59b065feeb31357be;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fglibc.git ARM: VDSO support Beginning with the upcoming 4.1 release, Linux on a subset of 32-bit ARM hardware will provide fast user-space implementations of the following system calls: - gettimeofday - clock_gettime The kernel implementation depends on the ARMv7 Generic Timers Extension to accelerate these system calls. So CPUs such as Cortex-A15 and -A7 benefit, while Cortex-A9, -A8, and pre-v7 CPUs do not. On systems where the VDSO does not provide any speedup, the kernel prevents the relevant symbol lookups from succeeding. On OMAP5 (Cortex-A15) gettimeofday latency decreases from ~350ns to ~120ns. On BeagleBone Black (Cortex-A8) it goes from ~650ns to ~660ns, which to my mind is an acceptable cost. Verified that no new test failures are introduced on kernels with and without the VDSO. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/Makefile: (sysdep_routines): Include dl-vdso. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/init-first.c: New file: Use VDSO routines for gettimeofday, clock_gettime if available. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/libc-vdso.h: New file: Declare VDSO symbols. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/sysdep.h: [HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY_VSYSCALL]: Define.
