Subject: [PATCH v2 00/14] selftests: vDSO: Stop using libc types for vDSO calls
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2025 16:30:16 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251113-vdso-test-types-v2-0-0427eff70d08@linutronix.de> (raw)
Currently the vDSO selftests use the time-related types from libc.
This works on glibc by chance today but will break with other libc
implementations or on distributions which switch to 64-bit times
everywhere.
The kernel's UAPI headers provide the proper types to use with the vDSO
(and raw syscalls) but are not necessarily compatible with libc types.
Introduce a new header which makes the UAPI headers compatible with the
libc.
Also contains some related cleanups.

Changes in v2:
- Use __kernel_old_time_t in vdso_time_t.
- Add vdso_syscalls.h.
- Add a test for the time() function.
- Validate return value of syscall(clock_getres) in vdso_test_abi
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251111-vdso-test-types-v1-0-03b31f88c659@linutronix.de
