Subject: [PATCH v3 3/6] ARM: architected timers: Add A15 specific sched_clock implementation
Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2012 17:13:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1334592810-4382-4-git-send-email-marc.zyngier@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1334592810-4382-1-git-send-email-marc.zyngier@arm.com>
Provide an A15 sched_clock implementation using the virtual counter,
which is thought to be more useful than the physical one in a
virtualised environment, as it can offset the time spent in another
VM or the hypervisor.
Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
