time: move PIT_TICK_RATE to linux/timex.h

2009-06-17T02:47:27+00:00

PIT_TICK_RATE is currently defined in four architectures, but in three
different places.  While linux/timex.h is not the perfect place for it, it
is still a reasonable replacement for those drivers that traditionally use
asm/timex.h to get CLOCK_TICK_RATE and expect it to be the PIT frequency.

Note that for Alpha, the actual value changed from 1193182UL to 1193180UL.
 This is unlikely to make a difference, and probably can only improve
accuracy.  There was a discussion on the correct value of CLOCK_TICK_RATE
a few years ago, after which every existing instance was getting changed
to 1193182.  According to the specification, it should be
1193181.818181...

clocksource: pass clocksource to read() callback

2009-04-21T20:41:47+00:00

Pass clocksource pointer to the read() callback for clocksources.  This
allows us to share the callback between multiple instances.

x86: move mach-default/*.h files to asm/

2009-01-29T13:16:51+00:00

We are getting rid of subarchitecture support - move the hook files
to asm/. (These are now stale and should be replaced with more explicit
runtime mechanisms - but the transition is simpler this way.)

clocksource, acpi_pm.c: put acpi_pm_read_slow() under CONFIG_PCI

2008-12-12T14:05:28+00:00

acpi_pm_read_slow() is only used when CONFIG_PCI=y, so move the definition
inside the ifdef.

Otherwise this causes a "defined but not used" warning when building with
CONFIG_ACPI=y and CONFIG_PCI=n (that's not supported yet, but it could
be).

clocksource, acpi_pm.c: fix check for monotonicity

2008-09-11T09:14:29+00:00

Actually check the monotonicity of the ACPI PMTMR ten times, only delay for
0.9 miliseconds at most, and bail out early if some problem is determined.

clocksource, acpi_pm.c: check for monotonicity

2008-09-06T13:33:33+00:00

The current check for monotonicity is way too weak: Andreas Mohr reports (
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/10/77 ) that on one of his test systems the
current check only triggers in 50% of all cases, leading to catastrophic
timer behaviour.  To fix this issue, expand the check for monotonicity by
doing ten consecutive tests instead of one.

clocksource, acpi_pm.c: use proper read function also in errata mode

2008-09-06T13:33:31+00:00

On all hardware (some Intel ICH4, PIIX4 and PIIX4E chipsets) affected by a
hardware errata there's about a 4.2% chance that initialization of the
ACPI PMTMR fails.  On those chipsets, we need to read out the timer value
at least three times to get a correct result, for every once in a while
(i.e.  within a 3 ns window every 69.8 ns) the read returns a bogus
result.  During normal operation we work around this issue, but during
initialization reading a bogus value may lead to -EINVAL even though the
hardware is usable.

Thanks to Andreas Mohr for spotting this issue.
