Subject: [PATCH v3 1/6] ARM: local timers: reserve local_timer_register() to SMP
Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2012 17:13:25 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1334592810-4382-2-git-send-email-marc.zyngier@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1334592810-4382-1-git-send-email-marc.zyngier@arm.com>
When running an SMP_ON_UP enabled kernel on UP, or with nosmp
passed to the kernel, we want to be able to detect that a local
timer is not going to be used (local timers are only used on
SMP platforms), so we could register it as a global timer instead.
Return -ENXIO when the above case is detected.
