[patch V2 08/11] x86/vdso: Replace the clockid switch case

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Now that the time getter functions use the clockid as index into the
storage array for the base time access, the switch case can be replaced.

- Check for clockid >= MAX_CLOCKS and for negative clockid (CPU/FD) first
  and call the fallback function right away.

- After establishing that clockid is < MAX_CLOCKS, convert the clockid to a
  bitmask

- Check for the supported high resolution and coarse functions by anding
  the bitmask of supported clocks and check whether a bit is set.

This completely avoids jump tables, reduces the number of conditionals and
makes the VDSO extensible for other clock ids.
