It happens there too, it's just calls do_fast_time() or something like that (which effectively calls do_gettimeofday() which is why that got deleted).
From kernel/time.c on 2.4.7: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- static void do_normal_gettime(struct timeval * tm) { *tm=xtime; }
void (*do_get_fast_time)(struct timeval *) = do_normal_gettime;
/* * Generic way to access 'xtime' (the current time of day). * This can be changed if the platform provides a more accurate (and fast!) * version. */
void get_fast_time(struct timeval * t)
{
do_get_fast_time(t);
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------So it simply returns xtime. Hmm...where all does xtime get updated though?
