Hi Vincento, I've implemented now what I tried to explain earlier. This moves the implementation of clock_gettime() and clock_getres() over to 64-bit __kernel_timespec, with a conversion in the end for architectures that actually use the 32-bit calls. The vdso/types.h file is now obsolete, but we do need to duplicate a few functions on mips32 and x86-32. It may be possible to fold those into the generic lib/vdso/gettimeofday.c file as another step. If there are no objections, please fold these changes into your series.
Please write the new generic code in that way and apply the architecture changes when converting them over. Thanks, tglx
