2019-09-04Finish move of clock_* functions to libc. [BZ #24959]Zack Weinberg
In glibc 2.17, the functions clock_getcpuclockid, clock_getres, clock_gettime, clock_nanosleep, and clock_settime were moved from librt.so to libc.so, leaving compatibility stubs behind. Now that the dynamic linker no longer insists on finding versioned symbols in the same library that originally defined them, we do not need the stubs anymore, and this means we don't need GLIBC_PRIVATE __-prefix aliases for most of the functions anymore either. (clock_gettime still needs one.) For ports added before 2.17, libc.so needs to provide two symbol versions for each, the default at GLIBC_2.17 plus a compat version matching what librt had. While I'm at it, move the clock_*.c files and their tests from rt/ to time/.
2019-02-08rt: Turn forwards from librt to libc into compat symbols [BZ #24194]Florian Weimer
As the result of commit 6e6249d0b461b952d0f544792372663feb6d792a ("BZ#14743: Move clock_* symbols from librt to libc."), in glibc 2.17, clock_gettime, clock_getres, clock_settime, clock_getcpuclockid, clock_nanosleep were added to libc, and the file rt/clock-compat.c was added with forwarders to the actual implementations in libc. These forwarders were wrapped in #if SHLIB_COMPAT (librt, GLIBC_2_2, GLIBC_2_17) so that they are not present for newer architectures (such as powerpc64le) with a 2.17 or later ABI baseline. But the forwarders were not marked as compatibility symbols. As a result, on older architectures, historic configure checks such as AC_CHECK_LIB(rt, clock_gettime) still cause linking against librt, even though this is completely unnecessary. It also creates a needless porting hazard because architectures behave differently when it comes to symbol availability. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>

2016-10-07Use libc_ifunc macro for clock_* symbols in librt.Stefan Liebler
This patch uses the libc_ifunc macro to create already existing ifunc functions clock_getres, clock_gettime, clock_settime, clock_getcpuclockid and clock_nanosleep. If HAVE_IFUNC is defined, the macro COMPAT_REDIRECT uses the libc_ifunc macro. Furthermore some whitespace damage is cleaned. ChangeLog: * rt/clock-compat.c (COMPAT_REDIRECT): Use libc_ifunc macro.
