Subject: [PATCH v4 1/7] ARM: local timers: reserve local_timer_register() to SMP
Date: Fri, 27 Apr 2012 13:55:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1335531359-32128-2-git-send-email-marc.zyngier@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1335531359-32128-1-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.
