Subject: [RFC patch 10/15] LTTng timestamp mips
Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2008 19:27:39 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081016234657.052698980@polymtl.ca> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20081016232729.699004293@polymtl.ca

[-- Attachment #1: lttng-timestamp-mips.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2402 bytes --]

MIPS get_cycles only returns a 32 bits TSC (see timex.h). The assumption there
is that the reschedule is done every 8 seconds or so. Given that tracing needs
to detect delays longer than 8 seconds, we need a full 64-bits TSC, whic is
provided by LTTng syntheric TSC.
