Some really old platforms, rhel3, which don't define CLOCK_MONOTONIC, still need a way to build git. Some high resolution timer code was added Jul 12, 2014 to aid debugging performance issues. That code uses clock_gettime and CLOCK_MONOTONIC. That change breaks building git on ancient platforms which don't support CLOCK_MONOTONIC, so a way to disable that code is needed. To use this feature... $ make NO_CLOCK_GETTIME=1 This change amends the commit... commit 148d6771bf5e00aa1d7fa2221507a3dfe4c1e37f Author: Karsten Blees <karsten.blees@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Jul 12 02:05:42 2014 +0200 trace: add high resolution timer function to debug performance issues --- Makefile | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index 9f984a9..0c1c8cf 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -1502,10 +1502,12 @@ ifdef GMTIME_UNRELIABLE_ERRORS BASIC_CFLAGS += -DGMTIME_UNRELIABLE_ERRORS endif +ifndef NO_CLOCK_GETTIME ifdef HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME BASIC_CFLAGS += -DHAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME EXTLIBS += -lrt endif +endif ifeq ($(TCLTK_PATH),) NO_TCLTK = NoThanks -- 1.9.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
