linux-user: Add support for adjtimex() syscall
This patch implements Qemu user mode adjtimex() syscall support. Syscall adjtimex() reads and optionally sets parameters for a clock adjustment algorithm used in network synchonization or similar scenarios. Its declaration is: int adjtimex(struct timex *buf); The correspondent source code in the Linux kernel is at kernel/time.c, line 206. The Qemu implementation is based on invocation of host's adjtimex(), and its key part is in the "TARGET_NR_adjtimex" case segment of the the main switch statement of the function do_syscall(), in linux-user/syscalls.c. All necessary conversions of the data structures from target to host and from host to target are covered. Two new functions, target_to_host_timex() and host_to_target_timex(), are provided for the purpose of such conversions. For that purpose, the support for related structure "timex" had tp be added to the file linux-user/syscall_defs.h, based on its definition in Linux kernel. Also, the relevant support for "-strace" Qemu option is included in files linux-user/strace.c and linux-user/strace.list. This patch also fixes failures of LTP tests adjtimex01 and adjtimex02, if executed in Qemu user mode. Signed-off-by:Aleksandar Rikalo <aleksandar.rikalo@imgtec.com> Signed-off-by:
