Subject: [PATCH] tcb_clksrc: Use 32 bit tcb as sched_clock
Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2017 14:50:59 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170111135059.21318-1-david.engraf@sysgo.com> (raw)

On newer boards the TC can be read as single 32 bit value without locking.
Thus the clock can be used as reference for sched_clock which is much more
accurate than the jiffies implementation.

Tested on a Atmel SAMA5D2 board.
