jiffies is declared in /linux/sched.h as extern unsigned long volatile.
But what is the libary that hold jiffies.
I got a link error about this.

kernel/sched.c declares jiffies (and one of it's tasks is incrementing
jiffies on each timer tick). User space code should never see the bulk of
linux/sched.h anyway - what were you doing?
