Hi,
Is anybody knowing if there is microsecond resolution
patch for 2.6 kernel. As it was there for 2.2.13 by KURT linux people. I think such a patch is also needed for 2.6 kernel
even though its granularity is 1ms , what if someone
want to expire the timer in few microseconds.
Thanks Peasanna
Hi,
You can try to play with the HZ constant (defined in include/asm-'you_arch'/param.h. It's the frequency of the timer. By default, it's set to 1ms.
Several distributions (RedHat for example) modify this value in their "own kernel".
