[PATCH v4 2/3] x86/platform/uv: Update TSC sync state for UV5

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

 



From: Mike Travis <mike.travis@xxxxxxx>

The UV5 platform synchronizes the TSCs among all chassis, and will not
proceed to OS boot without achieving synchronization.  Previous UV
platforms provided a register indicating successful synchronization.
This is no longer available on UV5.  On this platform TSC_ADJUST
should not be reset by the kernel.
