[LTP] [PATCH] clock_settime: use POSIX runtime detection for CLOCK_MONOTONIC

[Petr Vorel]

> From: Andrea Cervesato <andrea.cervesato@suse.com>

> The clock_settime helpers.h used a compile-time #ifdef on
> _POSIX_MONOTONIC_CLOCK to select between real and stub
> implementations of pts_mono_time_start()/pts_mono_time_check().

> On Linux/glibc, _POSIX_MONOTONIC_CLOCK is defined as 0, meaning
> support is optional and must be verified at runtime via
> sysconf(_SC_MONOTONIC_CLOCK). The #ifdef treated 0 the same as
> >0 (always available), which is not POSIX-correct.

> Replace the compile-time #ifdef/#else split with a runtime
> pts_mono_available() helper that performs proper POSIX detection
> via sysconf(). Also add a missing #ifndef include guard and
> #include <unistd.h> so _POSIX_MONOTONIC_CLOCK is always defined.

This and the previous condition is the same as in patch for nanosleep.
It's a simple code, but because it's still a bit specific, wouldn't it make
sense to move the function from nanosleep/helpers.h [1]
to newly created file in testcases/open_posix_testsuite/include/clock.h?
And both tests would use it?

Kind regards,
Petr
