Fix the build failure caused by the undefined `CLONE_NEWTIME`. Include the `linux/sched.h` header file where the function is defined to ensure successful compilation of the selftests.
This is supposed to be already fixed by commit 34d5b600172b ("selftests: vDSO: Explicitly include sched.h")
Can you explain what is the exact problem still ? And why linux/sched.h ?
Did you properly build kernel headers before building selftests ?

Yes, I noticed that sched.h is already included, but I still encountered an "undeclared CLONE_NEWTIME" error during compilation.
Error I got: CC vdso_test_getrandom vdso_test_getrandom.c: In function ‘kselftest’: vdso_test_getrandom.c:257:29: error: ‘CLONE_NEWTIME’ undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean ‘CLONE_NEWPID’? 257 | ksft_assert(unshare(CLONE_NEWTIME) == 0); | ^~~~~ vdso_test_getrandom.c:47:20: note: in definition of macro ‘ksft_assert’ 47 | do { if (!(condition)) ksft_exit_fail_msg("Assertion failed: %s\n", #condition); } while (0) | ^~~~~ vdso_test_getrandom.c:257:29: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in 257 | ksft_assert(unshare(CLONE_NEWTIME) == 0); | ^~~~~ vdso_test_getrandom.c:47:20: note: in definition of macro ‘ksft_assert’ 47 | do { if (!(condition)) ksft_exit_fail_msg("Assertion failed: %s\n", #condition); } while (0) | ^~~~~ make[1]: * [../lib.mk:222: /home/purva/linux/tools/testing/selftests/vDSO/vdso_test_getrandom] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/purva/linux/tools/testing/selftests/vDSO'
I found that CLONE_NEWTIME is declared in both sched.h and linux/sched.h. Since sched.h was already included, it was surprising that the error persisted. Adding linux/sched.h as a header resolved the issue, and the selftests compiled successfully after that.

Yes, I ensured that I properly built the kernel headers before building the selftests by following the documentation provided here (https://docs.kernel.org/dev-tools/kselftest.html#running-the-selftests-hotpl...). I used the 'make headers' command as part of the process.

Must be that your sched.h is not up-to-date I guess. On my side I have:
/usr/include/linux/sched.h:#define CLONE_NEWTIME 0x00000080 /* New time namespace */ /usr/include/bits/sched.h:#define CLONE_NEWTIME 0x00000080 /* New time namespace */
And
/usr/include/sched.h:#include <bits/sched.h>

Can you recheck that the sched.h that contains CLONE_NEWTIME is really the one used by your compiler ?

Yes, I ensured that I properly built the kernel headers before building the selftests by following the documentation provided here
At the end we should probably wonder if we want selftests to build with old libc's that do not include latest defines. If we want to, then you should probably replace sched.h by linux/sched.h . I'm not sure about what to do really.

I rechecked the header files on my system and got the following output:
purva@purva-IdeaPad-Gaming-3-15IHU6:~/linux$ grep -r "CLONE_NEWTIME" /usr/include/linux/sched.h /usr/include/bits/sched.h /usr/include/sched.h /usr/include/linux/sched.h:#define CLONE_NEWTIME 0x00000080 /* New time namespace */
This shows that the definition of CLONE_NEWTIME exists only in /usr/include/linux/sched.h
Did you properly build kernel headers before building selftests ?
Yes, I ensured that I properly built the kernel headers before building the selftests by following the documentation provided here
At the end we should probably wonder if we want selftests to build with old libc's that do not include latest defines. If we want to, then you should probably replace sched.h by linux/sched.h . I'm not sure about what to do really.
Since sched.h from libc may not define CLONE_NEWTIME on older systems, should we explicitly include linux/sched.h to ensure compatibility with older libc versions?
Thank you for your time and feedback!
