How long is the TSC calibration going to last before introducing visible
errors? Is there any error introduced while we transfer the accuracy of
the pit to the acuracy of the TSC during calibration? It would be much
simpler to only use the TSC to provide system time, but I assume we
would be already doing it, if it wasn't for the lost accuracy.
Plus are you already handling cpufreq changed every second by
powersaved? Doesn't that introduce further inaccuracy in the system
time?
As for the lost-tick compensation, it's not working at all, my system
goes as fast in the future as it would go in the past by disabling it.
So the only effect I get by the lost tick compensation is that it's
moving in the future instead of in the past, but the magnitude of the
error is the same and in turn it's not working at all. The real bug is
the USB irq handler that takes 3/4msec to execute and I get a constant
load of those irqs from the adsl modem.
