That can not work at all. You need a counter which is incrementing at a constant rate and can be read out. If you do not have a continous counter then you should not provide a clock source. The generic code will then provide the jiffies clock source. In that case you need to disable the oneshot mode of your clock event device as well. > + > + return score_tick_cnt; > +} > + > +static struct clocksource score_clk = { > + .name = "timer", > + .rating = 250, > + .read = score_read_clk, > + .shift = 20, > + .mask = CLOCKSOURCE_MASK(32), > + .flags = CLOCK_SOURCE_IS_CONTINUOUS, yeah, continuously wrong :) > +}; > + > +void __init time_init(void) > +{ > + xtime.tv_sec = mktime(2009, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0); > + xtime.tv_nsec = 0; > + > + set_normalized_timespec(&wall_to_monotonic, -xtime.tv_sec, > + -xtime.tv_nsec); xtime setup is done in the generic time keeping code already.

When you register your clock event device the set_mode function is called and the timer is started. Your implementation is not going to work at all. A clock event device is a device which delivers either periodic or one shot interrupts. It is registered with the generic clockevents layer which takes care of setting up the device via the set_mode call back. The clock source device is a device which provides a monotonic increasing counter which can wrap around at some point. The wrap around point has to be power of 2 and is defined via the .mask member of the clock source device structure. The generic time keeping code takes care of the conversion to nsec based time and handles NTP and other adjustments. So in practice you need either two hardware devices (counter and interrupt generator) or a device which has a monotonic increasing counter and a match register which generates an interrupt when the counter value and the match register are the same.
