From 1e266629933bb3e40ac7db128f3b661f5bab56c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vineet Gupta Date: Wed, 6 Feb 2013 15:09:13 +0530 Subject: ARC: 64bit RTSC timestamp hardware issue The 64bit RTSC is not reliable, causing spurious "jumps" in higher word, making Linux timekeeping go bonkers. So as of now just use the lower 32bit timestamp. A cleaner approach would have been removing RTSC support altogether as the 32bit RTSC is equivalent to old TIMER1 based solution, but some customers can use the 32bit RTSC in SMP syn fashion (vs. TIMER1 which being incore can't be done easily). A fallout of this is sched_clock()'s hardware assisted version needs to go away since it can't use 32bit wrapping counter - instead we use the generic "weak" jiffies based version.
