My take on this is that the calibration loop should simply be killed once Colin's patch using the "smp_twd" clock is merged and relevant platforms updated. Once this is done, the watchdog driver should use the clock directly, without exporting a symbol. > The series of patches is based on arm-platforms.git/local_timers_as_devices > branch since it looks like that it is going to be merged into the mainline. Be careful here. This branch is a work in progress, likely to change very quickly, contains code that has not been posted to the ML yet, and will probably eat your pet for breakfast. As far as mainline merging is concerned, there is still a long way to go (see the GIC consolidation patches, on which the local_timers_as_devices branch relies). > V1 series was not discussed widely because I forgot to add all necessary > maintainers in Cc.
