This gives a maximum watch period of around 10s at a system counter frequency of 400MHz. If a larger watch period is required then the compare value can be programmed directly into the compare value register. 214s means your system counter is approximately at 20MHz which is in the range of (10MHz ~ 400MHz) SBSA 2.3 Page 13 : The System Counter (of the Generic Timer) shall run at a minimum frequency of 10MHz and maximum of 400MHz. > > -- > Sent by an employee of the Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. > The Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of the > Code Aurora Forum, hosted by The Linux Foundation. -- Best regards, Fu Wei Software Engineer Red Hat Software (Beijing) Co.,Ltd.Shanghai Branch Ph: +86 21 61221326(direct) Ph: +86 186 2020 4684 (mobile) Room 1512, Regus One Corporate Avenue,Level 15, One Corporate Avenue,222 Hubin Road,Huangpu District, Shanghai,China 200021 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
