Subject: [PATCH 23/23] clocksource tsc: add verify routine
Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2007 19:37:33 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070131033810.319576375@mvista.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070131033710.420168478@mvista.com

[-- Attachment #1: generic-tsc-verifiy-clock.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4242 bytes --]

I've included this as another user of the clocksource interface. I don't see a
usage for this across all achitectures. So a fully generic version isn't needed.

I modified this from the pre 2.6.20-rc6-mm2 release to make the routine smaller
and to make it select a clocksource inside the timer. It should work with an HPET.
