From: John Stultz Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2007 19:42:19 +0000 (+0100) Subject: time: add ADJ_OFFSET_SS_READ X-Git-Tag: v2.6.24-rc4~94^2~1 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=52bfb36050c8529d9031d2c2513b281a360922ec;p=pandora-kernel.git time: add ADJ_OFFSET_SS_READ Michael Kerrisk reported that a long standing bug in the adjtimex() system call causes glibc's adjtime(3) function to deliver the wrong results if 'delta' is NULL. add the ADJ_OFFSET_SS_READ API detail, which will be used by glibc to fix this API compatibility bug. Also see: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6761 [ mingo@elte.hu: added patch description and made it backwards compatible ] NOTE: the new flag is defined 0xa001 so that it returns -EINVAL on older kernels - this way glibc can use it safely.
