Subject: [PATCH v2 2/9] vdso/gettimeofday: Validate system call existence for time() and gettimeofday()
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 09:38:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260630-vdso-compat_32bit_time-v2-2-520d194640dd@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260630-vdso-compat_32bit_time-v2-0-520d194640dd@linutronix.de>

Not all architectures have the system calls for time() and
gettimeofday(). When the system call is missing, the vDSO function
should also not be present.

Validate that.
