Hi all, conformance/interfaces/timer_getoverrun/2-2 has failed on tests with some distros running on ppc64 machines. As far as I could realize, it happens due to these machines are running kernel with timer frequency configured to 100 Hz, which represents a clock precision smaller than the defined INTERVALNSEC. This patch sets the interval equals to the clock precision (retrieved via function clock_getres()), in order to avoid to use a interval smaller than the resolution of the clock. However, with these changes, this testcase becomes very similar to the test 2-3. Is this a valid modification? Any thought what should be done in this case? Thanks in advance, -- Edjunior |
