Subject: [PATCH] Timer interrupt cleanups [3/3] - normalise calls
Date: Sun, 05 Jan 2003 18:35:22 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200490000.1041820522@titus> (raw)
This patch moves x86_do_profile and update_process_times into
do_local_timer for all systems.
It also makes do_global_timer_interrupt call do_local_timer on systems
without the local apic timer (local apic timer simulation)
--------------------
Assuming we're SMP with a local apic timer all firing away:
global_timer_interrupt
do_global_timer_interrupt
{ack the interrupt}
do_global_timer_interrupt_hook
do_global_timer
jiffies_64++;
update_times
{update CMOS clock} (In the interrupt still ??!!)
local_apic_timer_interrupt
do_local_apic_timer_interrupt
{ack the interrupt}
do_local_timer
x86_do_profile
update_process_times
--------------------
On UP with local apic timer:
global_timer_interrupt
do_global_timer_interrupt
{ack the interrupt}
do_global_timer_interrupt_hook
do_global_timer
jiffies_64++;
update_times
{update CMOS clock} (In the interrupt still ??!!)
local_apic_timer_interrupt
do_local_apic_timer_interrupt
{ack the interrupt}
do_local_timer
x86_do_profile
update_process_times
--------------------
On a UP 386 with stale crusty breadcrumbs, and no local timer:
global_timer_interrupt
do_global_timer_interrupt
{ack the interrupt}
do_global_timer_interrupt_hook
do_global_timer
jiffies_64++;
update_times
do_local_timer
x86_do_profile
update_process_times
{update CMOS clock} (In the interrupt still ??!!)
