[PATCH RFC] vdso: introduce timens_static_branch
From: Andrei Vagin
Date: Wed Mar 27 2019 - 15:21:19 EST
As it has been discussed on timens RFC, adding a new conditional branch
`if (inside_time_ns)` on VDSO for all processes is undesirable.
Addressing those problems, there are two versions of VDSO's .so:
for host tasks (without any penalty) and for processes inside of time
namespace with clk_to_ns() that subtracts offsets from host's time.
This patch introduces timens_static_branch(), which is similar with
static_branch_unlikely.
The timens code in vdso looks like this:
if (timens_static_branch()) {
clk_to_ns(clk, ts);
}
The version of vdso which is compiled from sources will never execute
clk_to_ns(). And then we can patch the 'no-op' in the straight-line
codepath with a 'jump' instruction to the out-of-line true branch and
get the timens version of the vdso library.
