[PATCH v4 07/14] clocksource: mips-gic-timer: Always use cluster 0 counter as clocksource

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Paul Burton <paulburton@xxxxxxxxxx>

In a multi-cluster MIPS system we have multiple GICs - one in each
cluster - each of which has its own independent counter. The counters in
each GIC are not synchronised in any way, so they can drift relative to
one another through the lifetime of the system. This is problematic for
a clocksource which ought to be global.

Avoid problems by always accessing cluster 0's counter, using
cross-cluster register access. This adds overhead so we only do so on
systems where we actually have CPUs present in multiple clusters.
For now, be extra conservative and don't use gic counter for vdso or
sched_clock in this case.
