I'll have a look at your patches, but I hope you have got about the most interesting configuration right, which is the DEC platform
hmm, I looked at arch/mips/dec/time.c, and I'm not sure to understand it. Could you give me more info ? To be sure we're taking about the same thing, I'm calling "hpt" the timer in CP0 _only_. If you have others timers let's call them "timer".
where you can have one of these: 1. No HPT at all.
What's generating the tick interrupt in this case ?
2. HPT in the chipset.
What do you mean by chipset ? the DS1287 ?
3. HPT in CP0.
Reading the dec code, it seems that whatever the case, you don't use the hpt cp0 as tick interrupt source. It's only use as a clock source. If so, why ? -- Franck
