Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Dynamic Tick: Enabling longer sleep times on 32-bit machines
Date: Wed, 27 May 2009 09:48:23 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A1D52B7.50701@ti.com> (raw)


This patch series ensures that the wrapping of the clocksource will not 
be missed if the kernel sleeps for longer periods and allows 32-bit 
machines to sleep for longer than 2.15 seconds.

Jon Hunter (2):
   Dynamic Tick: Prevent clocksource wrapping during idle
   Dynamic Tick: Allow 32-bit machines to sleep for more than 2.15
     seconds
