[PATCH 4/6] vDSO: Automatically select HAVE_GENERIC_VDSO if necessary
From: Thomas Weißschuh
Date: Thu Jul 09 2026 - 03:29:22 EST
gettimeofday() and getrandom() in the vDSO require the vDSO datastore.
Enable it automatically if either one of them is enabled so the
architecture code doesn't need to know this.
