[PATCH] lib/vdso: Make clock_getres() POSIX compliant again

[Christophe Leroy]

Le 21/10/2019 à 12:07, Thomas Gleixner a écrit :
> A recent commit removed the NULL pointer check from the clock_getres()
> implementation causing a test case to fault.
> 
> POSIX requires an explicit NULL pointer check for clock_getres() aside of
> the validity check of the clock_id argument for obscure reasons.
> 
> Add it back for both 32bit and 64bit.
> 
> Note, this is only a partial revert of the offending commit which does not
> bring back the broken fallback invocation in the the 32bit compat
> implementations of clock_getres() and clock_gettime().
> 
> Fixes: a9446a906f52 ("lib/vdso/32: Remove inconsistent NULL pointer checks")
