[PATCH] arm64: arch_timer: XGene-1 has 31 bit, not 32 bit, arch timer.

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

 



arm64: XGene-1 has a 31 bit, not a 32 bit, arch timer.

Fixes: 012f188504528b8cb32f441ac3bd9ea2eba39c9e ("clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer:
  Work around broken CVAL implementations")

Testing:
  On an 8-cpu Mustang, the following sequence no longer locks up the system:

     echo 0 >/proc/sys/kernel/watchdog
     for i in {0..7}; do taskset -c $i echo hi there $i; done

Stable:
  To be applied to 5.16 and above, once accepted by mainline.
