Subject: [PATCH v9 3/8] revamp vclock_gettime.c
Date: Sun,  2 Feb 2014 22:41:28 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1391377293-9458-4-git-send-email-stefani@seibold.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1391377293-9458-1-git-send-email-stefani@seibold.net>

From: Stefani Seibold <stefani@seibold.net>

This intermediate patch revamps the vclock_gettime.c by moving some functions
around. It is only for spliting purpose, to make whole the 32 bit vdso timer
patch easier to review.
