I'm not sure what is the correct approach here. In my case - armv7, 32 bit - in support/support_path_support_time64.c the utimensat_time64 syscall is called, which is wrapped to INLINE_SYSCALL_CALL(), which calls __libc_do_syscall ASM ARM function. This function is only defined for i386 and 32 bit ARM (in e.g. sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/{arm|i386}/libc-do-syscall.S) > > Thanks, > Florian > Best regards, Lukasz Majewski -- DENX Software Engineering GmbH, Managing Director: Wolfgang Denk HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr.5, D-82194 Groebenzell, Germany Phone: (+49)-8142-66989-59 Fax: (+49)-8142-66989-80 Email: lukma@denx.de

So the question is, why INLINE_SYSCALL_CALL? Thanks, Florian

The __libc_do_syscall is in fact only used thumb mode used as default, and the direct syscall is used because there is no direct support for using 64 bit types on ABI with default 32 bit time. We might eventually remove the INLINE_SYSCALL_CALL once 64 bit time support is implemented (so we build the file with _TIME_SIZE=64). The patch itself looks ok.

I will apply it if Florian don't mind. Please replace the INLINE_SYSCALL_CALL with a simpler syscall(2) so it won't require to add libc-do-syscall.

I prefer the syscall-based approach because it makes it easier to build
the test outside of the glibc source tree.
Thanks,
Florian
