From 8cbd9cc6254065c97c4bac42daa55ba1abe73a8e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Sharp Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2012 12:18:21 -0800 Subject: tracing,x86: Add a TSC trace_clock In order to promote interoperability between userspace tracers and ftrace, add a trace_clock that reports raw TSC values which will then be recorded in the ring buffer. Userspace tracers that also record TSCs are then on exactly the same time base as the kernel and events can be unambiguously interlaced. Tested: Enabled a tracepoint and the "tsc" trace_clock and saw very large timestamp values. v2: Move arch-specific bits out of generic code. v3: Rename "x86-tsc", cleanups v7: Generic arch bits in Kbuild.
