From: Wilson Yeung <wilson@whack.org> Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2002 17:03:58 -0800 (PST) The discreprency is that get_fast_time() returns the current value of xtime, while do_gettimeofday() may actually calculate the time and consider both xtime and the jiffies. Look at the x86 implementation of do_fast_time, it equals do_gettimeofday() when TSC is present which is the only time that do_gettimeofday is going to be more accurate than xtime.
