The patch titled revert "ACPI: idle: mark_tsc_unstable() at init-time, not run-time" has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was revert-acpi-idle-mark_tsc_unstable-at-init-time-not-run-time.patch This patch was dropped because it is obsolete The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: revert "ACPI: idle: mark_tsc_unstable() at init-time, not run-time" From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Revert : commit a71e4917dc0ebbcb5a0ecb7ca3486643c1c9a6e2 : Author: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> : AuthorDate: Tue Apr 21 00:50:11 2009 -0400 : Commit: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> : CommitDate: Wed Apr 22 19:22:18 2009 -0400 : : ACPI: idle: mark_tsc_unstable() at init-time, not run-time Due to the following report, from Frans Pop: : I'm seeing the same issue with 2.6.30-rc5 (not tested previous RCs on that : box) on a system for which TSC has always been usable. : : $ dmesg | grep TSC : Fast TSC calibration using PIT : checking TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#1]: passed. : Marking TSC unstable due to TSC halts in idle : : The last line is new with 2.6.30. After reverting a71e4917dc0 the TSC : works fine again. : : The system has a Intel D945GCZ mainboard with dual core Pentium D : (3.20GHz) processor running x86_64 and Debian Lenny.
