Subject: [PATCH v2 2/5] x86/time: Always count s_time from Xen boot
Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2014 18:57:01 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1393613824-13230-3-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1393613824-13230-1-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>
From: Tim Deegan <tim@xen.org>
In the early-boot clock, before the calibration routines kick in,
count time from Xen boot rather than from when the BSP's TSC was 0.
Signed-off-by: Tim Deegan <tim@xen.org>
Stash the timestamp in head.S as a good approximation of when we actually
started, rather than measuing "time since we ran early_time_init()"
