Subject: [PATCH 3/4] i386: add the X86_FEATURE_SYNC_RDTSC flag
Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2007 15:21:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070228142117.GD19452@amd.com> (raw)

From: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com>
This patch adds the X86_FEATURE_SYNC_RDTSC to the i386 architecture.
This is very helpfull to simplify the get_cycles_sync() function and
remove the #ifdefs from it.
