Subject: [patch 2/3] x86_64: remove duplicated sys_time64
Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2005 19:32:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050330173216.426CFEFECF@zion> (raw)


CC: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

Keeping this function does not makes sense because it's a copied (and buggy)
copy of sys_time. The only difference is that now.tv_sec (which is a time_t,
i.e. a 64-bit long) is copied (and truncated) into a int (32-bit).

The prototype is the same (they both take a long __user *), so let's drop this
and redirect it to sys_time (and make sure it exists by defining
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME).

Only disadvantage is that the sys_stime definition is also compiled (may be
fixed if needed by adding a separate __ARCH_WANT_SYS_STIME macro, and defining
it for all arch's defining __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME except x86_64).

Not compile-tested, sorry.
