2014-04-22sched_clock: Remove deprecated setup_sched_clock() APIStephen Boyd
Remove the 32-bit only setup_sched_clock() API now that all users have been converted to the 64-bit friendly sched_clock_register(). Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>
2013-10-09sched_clock: Remove sched_clock_func() hookStephen Boyd
Nobody is using sched_clock_func() anymore now that sched_clock supports up to 64 bits. Remove the hook so that new code only uses sched_clock_register(). Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>
2013-07-30sched_clock: Add support for >32 bit sched_clockStephen Boyd
The ARM architected system counter has at least 56 usable bits. Add support for counters with more than 32 bits to the generic sched_clock implementation so we can increase the time between wakeups due to dealing with wrap-around on these devices while benefiting from the irqtime accounting and suspend/resume handling that the generic sched_clock code already has. On my system using 56 bits over 32 bits changes the wraparound time from a few minutes to an hour. For faster running counters (GHz range) this is even more important because we may not be able to execute the timer in time to deal with the wraparound if only 32 bits are used. We choose a maxsec value of 3600 seconds because we assume no system will go idle for more than an hour. In the future we may need to increase this value. Note: All users should switch over to the 64-bit read function so we can remove setup_sched_clock() in favor of sched_clock_register().

2013-06-12sched_clock: Make ARM's sched_clock generic for all architecturesStephen Boyd
Nothing about the sched_clock implementation in the ARM port is specific to the architecture. Generalize the code so that other architectures can use it by selecting GENERIC_SCHED_CLOCK.
