Subject: [PATCH v9 2/6] clocksource: stm32: increase min delta value
Date: Fri,  8 Dec 2017 12:32:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171208113250.359-3-benjamin.gaignard@st.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171208113250.359-1-benjamin.gaignard@st.com>

From: Benjamin Gaignard <benjamin.gaignard@linaro.org>

The CPU is a CortexM4 @ 200MHZ and the clocks driving
the timers are at 90MHZ with a min delta at 1 you could
have an interrupt each 0.01 ms which is really to much.
By increase it to 0x60 it give more time (around 1 ms)
to CPU to handle the interrupt.
