Merge tag 'timers-vdso-2026-02-09' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull VDSO updates from Thomas Gleixner: - Provide the missing 64-bit variant of clock_getres() This allows the extension of CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME to the vDSO and finally the removal of 32-bit time types from the kernel and UAPI. - Remove the useless and broken getcpu_cache from the VDSO The intention was to provide a trivial way to retrieve the CPU number from the VDSO, but as the VDSO data is per process there is no way to make it work. - Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy() The packed struct violates strict aliasing rules which requires to pass -fno-strict-aliasing to the compiler. As this are scalar values __builtin_memcpy() turns them into simple loads and stores - Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof() The get/put_unaligned() changes triggered a new sparse warning when __beNN types are used with get/put_unaligned() as sparse builds add a special 'bitwise' attribute to them which prevents sparse to evaluate the Generic in __unqual_scalar_typeof(). Newer sparse versions support __typeof_unqual__() which avoids the problem, but requires a recent sparse install. So this adds a sanity check to sparse builds, which validates that sparse is available and capable of handling it. - Force inline __cvdso_clock_getres_common() Compilers sometimes un-inline agressively, which results in function call overhead and problems with automatic stack variable initialization. Interestingly enough the force inlining results in smaller code than the un-inlined variant produced by GCC when optimizing for size. * tag 'timers-vdso-2026-02-09' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: vdso/gettimeofday: Force inlining of __cvdso_clock_getres_common() x86/percpu: Make CONFIG_USE_X86_SEG_SUPPORT work with sparse compiler: Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof() powerpc/vdso: Provide clock_getres_time64() tools headers: Remove unneeded ignoring of warnings in unaligned.h tools headers: Update the linux/unaligned.h copy with the kernel sources vdso: Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy() parisc: Inline a type punning version of get_unaligned_le32() vdso: Remove struct getcpu_cache MIPS: vdso: Provide getres_time64() for 32-bit ABIs arm64: vdso32: Provide clock_getres_time64() ARM: VDSO: Provide clock_getres_time64() ARM: VDSO: Patch out __vdso_clock_getres() if unavailable x86/vdso: Provide clock_getres_time64() for x86-32 selftests: vDSO: vdso_test_abi: Add test for clock_getres_time64() selftests: vDSO: vdso_test_abi: Use UAPI system call numbers selftests: vDSO: vdso_config: Add configurations for clock_getres_time64() vdso: Add prototype for __vdso_clock_getres_time64()
