Cyclictest doesn't support --smi option for ice lake processors

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

 



Using the --smi option with cyclictest on ice lake processors gives
the following error:
FATAL: SMI counter is not supported on this processor

It looks like the ice lake model (0x6A) is missing from function
has_smi_counter:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/rt-tests/rt-tests.git/tree/src/cyclictest/cyclictest.c#n410

Before submitting a patch for this, I was just wondering if there was
a better way to handle this than having to update cyclictest every
time a new processor model is released?
