That (when present) provides accurate high frequency time info. I don't expect many problems on the 2.5.x side (which is where I plan on doing this) since x86 appears to have a driver-like architecture to handle the various types of timers. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
