Unconditionally, on all ports, use clock_settime to implement settimeofday. Remove sysdeps/unix/clock_settime.c, which implemented clock_settime by calling settimeofday; new OS ports must henceforth provide a real implementation of clock_settime. Hurd had a real implementation of settimeofday but not of clock_settime; this patch converts it into an implementation of clock_settime. It only supports CLOCK_REALTIME and microsecond resolution; Hurd/Mach does not appear to have any support for finer-resolution clocks. The vestigial "set time zone" feature of settimeofday complicates the generic settimeofday implementation a little. The only remaining uses of this feature that aren't just bugs, are using it to inform the Linux kernel of the offset between the hardware clock and UTC, on systems where the hardware clock doesn't run in UTC (usually because of dual-booting with Windows). There currently isn't any other way to do this. However, the callers that do this call settimeofday with _only_ the timezone argument non-NULL. Therefore, glibc's new behavior is: callers of settimeofday must supply one and only one of the two arguments. If both arguments are non-NULL, or both arguments are NULL, the call fails and sets errno to EINVAL. When only the timeval argument is supplied, settimeofday calls __clock_settime(CLOCK_REALTIME), same as stime. When only the timezone argument is supplied, settimeofday calls a new internal function called __settimezone. On Linux, only, this function will pass the timezone structure to the settimeofday system call. On all other operating systems, and on Linux architectures that don't define __NR_settimeofday, __settimezone is a stub that always sets errno to ENOSYS and returns -1. The settimeoday syscall is enabled on Linux by the flag COMPAT_32BIT_TIME, which is an option to either 32-bits ABIs or COMPAT builds (defined usually by 64-bit kernels that want to support 32-bit ABIs, such as x86). The idea to future 64-bit time_t only ABIs is to not provide settimeofday syscall. The same semantics are implemented for Linux/Alpha's GLIBC_2.0 compat symbol for settimeofday. There are no longer any internal callers of __settimeofday, so the internal prototype is removed. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, powerpc64le-linux-gnu, powerpc64-linux-gnu, powerpc-linux-gnu, and aarch64-linux-gnu.

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library. See the file "version.h" for what release version you have. The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems, and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system. It provides the system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system. In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications. In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers. The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu. When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later. Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be installed for the pthread library to work correctly. The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels: aarch64*-*-linux-gnu alpha*-*-linux-gnu arm-*-linux-gnueabi csky-*-linux-gnuabiv2 hppa-*-linux-gnu i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu x86_64-*-linux-gnu Can build either x86_64 or x32 ia64-*-linux-gnu m68k-*-linux-gnu microblaze*-*-linux-gnu mips-*-linux-gnu mips64-*-linux-gnu powerpc-*-linux-gnu Hardware or software floating point, BE only. powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu Big-endian and little-endian. s390-*-linux-gnu s390x-*-linux-gnu riscv64-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install the GNU C Library. You might also consider reading the WWW pages for the C library at https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/. The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. For corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component, following the bug-reporting instructions below. Please be sure to check the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has already been corrected. Please see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting information. We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports. This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require these additional notices to be distributed. License copyright years may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed individually.
