[PATCH] Fix compilation of powerpc asm-offsets.c with old gcc

From: Paul Mackerras
Date: Thu Feb 07 2008 - 17:25:27 EST


From: Tony Breeds <tony@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Commit ad7f71674ad7c3c4467e48f6ab9e85516dae2720 corrected the clock
resolution reported by the VDSO clock_getres() but introduced another
problem in that older versions of gcc (gcc-4.0 and earlier) fail to
compile the new code in arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c.

This fixes it by introducing a new MONOTONIC_RES_NSEC define in the
generic code which is equivalent to KTIME_MONOTONIC_RES but is just an
integer constant, not a ktime union.

Linus, I'm sending you this as a patch since it touches generic code.
Please apply, since mainline is broken for powerpc users who are using
gcc-4.0 or earlier.
