I write a program,use time() function,
When I gdb it :
[VM_241_149_tlinux ~/test]$ gdb ./testsys_d -q
Reading symbols from /data/home/youngxiao/test/testsys_d...(no debugging symbols found)...done.
(gdb) b __GI_time
Function "__GI_time" not defined.
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) y
Breakpoint 1 (__GI_time) pending.
(gdb) r
Starting program: /data/home/youngxiao/test/testsys_d
Breakpoint 1, 0x00007ffff7345770 in time () from /lib64/libc.so.6
Missing separate debuginfos, use: debuginfo-install glibc-2.12-1.149.tl1.6.x86_64 libgcc-4.4.6-4.tl1.x86_64 libstdc++-4.4.6-4.tl1.x86_64
(gdb) bt

Dump of assembler code for function time:

End of assembler dump.
ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff601000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vsyscall]
we can see the time() use vsyscall,not use vdso,why?
I also test gettimeofday() , it use vdso...
