Subject: [PATCH 01/14] powerpc/time: Expose boot_tb via accessor
Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2025 14:03:54 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250815083407.27953-2-atrajeev@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250815083407.27953-1-atrajeev@linux.ibm.com>
From: Aboorva Devarajan <aboorvad@linux.ibm.com>
- Define accessor function get_boot_tb() to safely return boot_tb.
- Tag boot_tb as __ro_after_init (only initialized once and never updated).
- Add a debug log to output the boot timebase during initialization.
