vdso: Drop Kconfig GENERIC_VDSO_DATA_STORE

2025-09-04T09:23:50Z

All users of the generic vDSO library also use the generic vDSO datastore. Remove the now unnecessary Kconfig symbol. Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Acked-by: Catalin Marinas Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250826-vdso-cleanups-v1-9-d9b65750e49f@linutronix.de

vdso/gettimeofday: Remove !CONFIG_TIME_NS stubs

2025-09-04T09:23:49Z

All calls of these functions are already gated behind CONFIG_TIME_NS. The compiler will already optimize them away if time namespaces are disabled. Drop the unnecessary stubs.

vdso/gettimeofday: Add support for auxiliary clocks

2025-07-18T12:09:39Z

Expose the auxiliary clocks through the vDSO. Architectures not using the generic vDSO time framework, namely SPARC64, are not supported. Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250701-vdso-auxclock-v1-12-df7d9f87b9b8@linutronix.de

vdso/gettimeofday: Introduce vdso_get_timestamp()

2025-07-18T11:45:32Z

This code is duplicated and with the introduction of auxiliary clocks will be duplicated even more. Introduce a helper. Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250701-vdso-auxclock-v1-9-df7d9f87b9b8@linutronix.de

vdso/gettimeofday: Introduce vdso_set_timespec()

vdso/gettimeofday: Introduce vdso_clockid_valid()

2025-07-18T11:45:32Z

Move the clock ID validation check into a common helper. Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250701-vdso-auxclock-v1-7-df7d9f87b9b8@linutronix.de

vdso/gettimeofday: Return bool from clock_gettime() helpers

2025-07-18T11:45:32Z

The internal helpers are effectively using boolean results, while pretending to use error numbers. Switch the return type to bool for more clarity.

vdso: Rework struct vdso_time_data and introduce struct vdso_clock

2025-03-08T13:37:41Z

To support multiple PTP clocks, the VDSO data structure needs to be reworked. All clock specific data will end up in struct vdso_clock and in struct vdso_time_data there will be an array of VDSO clocks. Now that all preparatory changes are in place: Split the clock related struct members into a separate struct vdso_clock. Make sure all users are aware, that vdso_time_data is no longer initialized as an array and vdso_clock is now the array inside vdso_data. Remove the vdso_clock define, which mapped it to vdso_time_data for the transition.

vdso/gettimeofday: Prepare helper functions for introduction of struct vdso_clock

2025-03-08T13:37:40Z

To support multiple PTP clocks, the VDSO data structure needs to be reworked. All clock specific data will end up in struct vdso_clock and in struct vdso_time_data there will be array of VDSO clocks. At the moment, vdso_clock is simply a define which maps vdso_clock to vdso_time_data. To prepare for the rework of the data structures, replace the struct vdso_time_data pointer argument of the helper functions with struct vdso_clock pointer where applicable. No functional change.
