Easier in what aspect? Both API looks similar. > You can either wait for the rest of Stephen's patch set > (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.msm/4092) before adding 64 bit, > or you can just make the trivial change to the now generic sched_clock code. I'll wait for the Stephen's patches to be merged then, and add support for 64bits counters to clocksource_mmio_init. Thanks!
