vdso support is available on mips starting with kernel 4.4, see kernel commit a7f4df4e21 "MIPS: VDSO: Add implementations of gettimeofday() and clock_gettime()" for details. In Linux kernel 4.4.0 the mips code returns -ENOSYS in case it can not handle the vdso call and assumes the libc will call the original syscall in this case. Handle this case in musl. Currently Linux kernel 4.4.0 handles the following types: CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE, CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE, CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC.
musl libc
musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.
The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.
For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
