Hey Peter, Thanks for sending this out. I'm a little curious though, can you expand a bit on how clocksource pointers can be problematic to get a hold of? What exactly is the problem that is motivating this change? I just worry that switching to an enumeration solution might be eventually exposing more than we would like to userland. thanks -john
