This is the issue we explained in commit message:
* Both tv and tz are not directly passed to kernel clock_gettime*
syscalls, so, it isn't able to check the pointer automatically with the
get_user/put_user helpers just like kernel gettimeofday syscall does.
instead, we emulate (but not completely) such checks in our new
__NR_clock_gettime* branch of nolibc.
but not that deeply described the direct cause, the direct cause is that the
test case passes a '(void *)1' and the kernel space of gettimeofday can simply
'fixup' this issue by the get_user/put_user helpers, but our user-space tv and
tz code has no such function, just emulate such 'fixup' by a stupid etext
compare to at least make sure the data pointer is in data range. Welcome better
solution.
CASE_TEST(gettimeofday_bad1); EXPECT_SYSER(1, gettimeofday((void *)1, NULL), -1, EFAULT); break;
CASE_TEST(gettimeofday_bad2); EXPECT_SYSER(1, gettimeofday(NULL, (void *)1), -1, EFAULT); break;
Without this ugly check, the above cases would get such error:
35 gettimeofday_bad1init[1]: unhandled signal 11 code 0x1 at 0x00000002 in init[10000+5000]

Will at least append this test error in the commit message of the coming new
revision of this patch.
Hi, Willy, this also require your discussion, simply remove the above
two test cases may be not a good idea too, the check for gettimeofday is
perfectly ok.
The same 'emulate' method is used in the waitid patch, but that only
requires to compare 'pid == INT_MIN', which is not that weird.

The same issue here.

Ok, will remove the #ifdef wrapper, let the compiler optimize itself.
