TIMER0 interrupt ACK is different for ARC700 and HS3x cores. This came to light in some internal discussions and it is nice to have this documented rather than digging up the PRM (Prog Ref Manual) again Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta at synopsys.com> --- drivers/clocksource/arc_timer.c | 11 ++++++++--- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/clocksource/arc_timer.c b/drivers/clocksource/arc_timer.c index 4927355f9cbe..471b428d8034 100644 --- a/drivers/clocksource/arc_timer.c +++ b/drivers/clocksource/arc_timer.c @@ -251,9 +251,14 @@ static irqreturn_t timer_irq_handler(int irq, void *dev_id) int irq_reenable = clockevent_state_periodic(evt); /* - * Any write to CTRL reg ACks the interrupt, we rewrite the - * Count when [N]ot [H]alted bit. - * And re-arm it if perioid by [I]nterrupt [E]nable bit + * 1.
