[PATCH 6.5 178/739] net/mlx5: Dynamic cyclecounter shift calculation for PTP free running clock

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

 



6.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Rahul Rameshbabu <rrameshbabu@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 84a58e60038fa0366006977dba85eae16b2e3d78 ]

Use a dynamic calculation to determine the shift value for the internal
timer cyclecounter that will lead to the highest precision frequency
adjustments. Previously used a constant for the shift value assuming all
devices supported by the driver had a nominal frequency of 1GHz. However,
there are devices that operate at different frequencies. The previous shift
value constant would break the PHC functionality for those devices.
