From: Kirill Tkhai <tkhai@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2012 03:17:03 +0400 > SUN4M per-cpu timers have two modes of work. These are timer mode and > counter mode. Kernel doesn't write anything to the register, which is > connected with mode choice. > So, the mode is chosen by bootloader. This patch forces to use timer > mode from the kernel and to be independent of bootloader. > > I had this problem with OpenBIOS. Timers don't tick and kernel fails on > QEMU, when it's compiled with SMP support. The patch fixes problem. > > Signed-off-by: Tkhai Kirill <tkhai@xxxxxxxxx> > Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Applied, thanks. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
