This is terribly inefficient to read all 64-bits and then cast back to
a 32-bit value. Replace with:
return __raw_readl(reg_base + EXYNOS4_MCT_G_CNT_L);

Please rebase atop (1d80415 clocksource: exynos_mct: Don't reset the
counter during boot and resume), which is in linuxnext among other
places.

It does seem to work for me though. :)

Yes agree.
This unsigned long strangely behaves as 32 bits for arm32 and 64 bits for arm64.
So I think it better is to do something like this,
+static unsigned long exynos4_read_current_timer(void)
+{
+#ifdef ARM
+ return __raw_readl(reg_base + EXYNOS4_MCT_G_CNT_L);
+#else /* ARM64, etc */
+ return exynos4_frc_read(&mct_frc);
+#endif
+}
+
I will post V2 version like above and see what the maintainer says.

OK will re base my patch on top of this.

Doug,
aren't you working on a 32 bits version ? So this patch could be
simplified ?
Thanks

I could do that if someone told me that they'll land it.
My understanding of the current status is:
* I posed the 64-bit version that's almost as fast as the 32-bit version.
* I asked if people want the 32-bit version: no answer
* I asked if anyone is opposed to the 64-bit version: no answer
I know that you wanted me to clean up the description of the 64-bit
version so I was going to do that and repost. If there's someone
willing to review / ack the 32-bit version I'd be happy to do that
instead. Possibly I'll do both and a maintainer can choose which to
apply?
In the case here I was suggesting using the 32-bit version just
because on ARM32 there's totally no reason to read 64-bits. I hadn't
given a thought to ARM64. More on that in response to the other
messages.

* I asked if anyone is opposed to the 64-bit version: no answer
I know that you wanted me to clean up the description of the 64-bit
version so I was going to do that and repost. If there's someone
willing to review / ack the 32-bit version I'd be happy to do that
instead. Possibly I'll do both and a maintainer can choose which to
apply?
In the case here I was suggesting using the 32-bit version just
because on ARM32 there's totally no reason to read 64-bits. I hadn't
given a thought to ARM64. More on that in response to the other
messages.

Yeah, that happens. I thought you were working on the 32 bits.

Please, resend me the patch 1/3 as it is urgent with the changelog changed.

Is there a 64bits platform using exynos_mct ?

Yeah, that happens. I thought you were working on the 32 bits.

Is there a 64bits platform using exynos_mct ?

It was on my list of things to do today to touch base and make sure we
were on the same page. Apparently we weren't. ;)

OK, I'll do that right now, but just send it as a single patch (so I
can get it out right away). Then I'll post up the 32-bit versions
with an implicit dependency on that patch.
