[PATCH v5] MIPS: Add a high resolution sched_clock() via cnt32_to_63().

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

 



From: Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@xxxxxxxxx>

(This v5 revision incorporates with the feedbacks from Ingo.)

This patch adds a cnt32_to_63() and MIPS c0 count based sched_clock(),
which provides high resolution. and also, one new kernel option
(HR_SCHED_CLOCK) is added to enable/disable this sched_clock().

Without it, the Ftrace for MIPS will give useless timestamp information.

Because cnt32_to_63() needs to be called at least once per half period
to work properly, Differ from the old version, this v2 revision set up a
kernel timer to ensure the requirement of some MIPSs which have short c0
count period.
