From fde937d826e43c9fe7fecc98b6f3da7188e76930 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Will Schmidt Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2007 15:49:50 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Fix VDSO gettimeofday() when called with NULL struct timeval. The vdso64 portion of patch 74609f4536f2b8fd6a48381bbbe3cd37da20a527 for fixing problems with NULL gettimeofday input mistakenly checks for a null tz field twice, when it should be checking for null tz once, and null tv once; by way of a r10/r11 typo. Any application calling gettimeofday(&tv,NULL) will "fail". This corrects that typo, and makes my G5 happy. Tested on G5.

You can probably blame me for originally writing the 2 versions with inversed usage of r10 and r11, thus confusing Tony :-)" Ben duly blamed. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso64/gettimeofday.S | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso64/gettimeofday.S b/arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso64/gettimeofday.S index 2d7a5104c666..c6401f9e37f1 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso64/gettimeofday.S +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso64/gettimeofday.S @@ -31,7 +31,7 @@ V_FUNCTION_BEGIN(__kernel_gettimeofday) mr r11,r3 /* r11 holds tv */ mr r10,r4 /* r10 holds tz */ bl V_LOCAL_FUNC(__get_datapage) /* get data page */ - cmpldi r10,0 /* check if tv is NULL */ + cmpldi r11,0 /* check if tv is NULL */ beq 2f bl V_LOCAL_FUNC(__do_get_xsec) /* get xsec from tb & kernel */ lis r7,15 /* r7 = 1000000 = USEC_PER_SEC */ -- 2.20.1
