Ater the timers driver rework, this would enable GFRC > for SMP builds and AFAIKR there were some issues with time with GFRC + nSIM etc.. Not anymore :) Probably I missed something in discussions. As a matter of fact I did run-test resulting vmlinux and it worked very nice. More over?ARC_TIMERS_64BIT is selected automatically by?ISA_ARCV2, see http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/arc/Kconfig#n119 That said even if "# CONFIG_ARC_TIMERS_64BIT is not set" is left in place the option will be effectively enabled, no? -Alexey
