Hi Vincenzo,

Not sure if you are aware of the recent bug report about clock_gettime64()
returning invalid times on some arm32 kernels:
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/3579

Regardless of when that gets fixed or by whom, I wonder if kselftest should
also check for consistency, i.e. call both the vdso and the syscall version of
clock_gettime() and clock_gettime64() and check that the results are always
in sequence.

Arnd
