clockevents: introduce force broadcast notifier

2007-10-14T20:57:45+00:00

The 64bit SMP bootup is slightly different to the 32bit one. It enables
the boot CPU local APIC timer before all CPUs are brought up. Some AMD C1E
systems have the C1E feature flag only set in the secondary CPU. Due to
the early enable of the boot CPU local APIC timer the APIC timer is
registered as a fully functional device. When we detect the wreckage during
the bringup of the secondary CPU, we need to force the boot CPU into
broadcast mode. 

Add a new notifier reason and implement the force broadcast in the clock
events layer.

Migration aid to allow preparatory patches which introduce not yet
used parts of clock events code.

clockevents: fix resume logic

2007-07-22T00:49:15+00:00

We need to make sure, that the clockevent devices are resumed, before
the tick is resumed. The current resume logic does not guarantee this.

Add CLOCK_EVT_MODE_RESUME and call the set mode functions of the clock
event devices before resuming the tick / oneshot functionality.

Fixup the existing users.

Thanks to Nigel Cunningham for tracking down a long standing thinko,
which affected the jinxed VAIO.

[PATCH] clockevents: add core functionality

2007-02-16T16:13:59+00:00

Architectures register their clock event devices, in the clock events core.
Users of the clockevents core can get clock event devices for their use.  The
clockevents core code provides notification mechanisms for various clock
related management events.

This allows to control the clock event devices without the architectures
having to worry about the details of function assignment.  This is also a
preliminary for high resolution timers and dynamic ticks to allow the core
code to control the clock functionality without intrusive changes to the
architecture code.
