Subject: [PATCH] clocksource: riscv_timer: Provide sched_clock

Currently, we don't have a sched_clock registered for RISC-V systems.
This means Linux time keeping will use jiffies (running at HZ) as the
default sched_clock.

To avoid this, we explicity provide sched_clock using RISC-V rdtime
instruction (similar to riscv_timer clocksource).

Hi Anup,

the GENERIC_SCHED_CLOCK dependency in the Kconfig is missing.

Thanks

Sure, will do.

I also have another patch to select GENERIC_SCHED_CLOCK
for CONFIG_RISCV. Should I squash that patch with this patch??

I prefer the riscv config option to be merged via the riscv tree.

Shouldn't this just be 64, not BITS_PER_LONG? We have 64-bit counters on
RV32I.

Ahh, yes. I got mislead by "mask" field of clocksource.

I will change this to 64 and add another patch on fix "mask" of
clocksource as well.
