Here is how you figure it out: - time() is a system call. In general, if you have a system call foo(), the corresponding function in the kernel will be named sys_foo(). In this case, search the kernel sources for sys_time(). - sys_time() basically just calls do_gettimeofday(), and then returns the information to the user. There is your answer - use do_gettimeofday().
