Use the global data instead of bss variable, replace as follow.
timer_load_val -> timer_rate_hz
timestamp -> timer_reset_value
lastdec -> lastinc

Before I am not use the patch, When I use the command "nand read",
The some information will generate. as following:
raise: Signal # 8 caught
I also trace the timer.c, But I can't resolve it. As if after the first
initial timer,
I guess the bss will be clear.
Now It is ok after patch this patch.
Thanks,

Thanks for testing.
Did you test with latest version?
Currently, SMDK6400 can't build because didn't rework for relocation.
If you are OK, could you please fix it?
I appreciate your help.

Ok, recently, I do the patch for SMD6400 and SMDK6410,
I will send request review in the weekend?

Dear concerned,
>>>>>> Use the global data instead of bss variable, replace as follow.
>>>>>> timer_load_val -> timer_rate_hz
>>>>>> timestamp -> timer_reset_value
I am not too happy about this "misuse" of gd->variables making them
"misnomers" and the code harder to read.
timer_rate_hz is supposed to hold the rate at which the high
speed timer increments.
timer_reset_value supposedly holds the high speed timer's value when
timer_reset() is called.
There was a discussion started about this a while ago, but came to no
conclusion...
Best Regards,
Reinhard

I'm not happy with this as well, and I actually will not accept the
patch because of that.

Maybe we should lean back and have a look at what Linux is doing in
this area?
The recent patch series "64-bit sched_clock" on the lak ML seems to

Best regards,

I object against using variables wich have somewhat self-explanatory
names for different purposes.
