From 7da7c1561366ba8adb7275464ab44e84e1faa7e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bin Gao Date: Mon, 21 Oct 2013 09:16:33 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86, tsc: Add static (MSR) TSC calibration on Intel Atom SoCs On SoCs that have the calibration MSRs available, either there is no PIT, HPET or PMTIMER to calibrate against, or the PIT/HPET/PMTIMER is driven from the same clock as the TSC, so calibration is redundant and just slows down the boot. TSC rate is caculated by this formula: * The ratio and the resolved frequency ID can be obtained from MSR. See Intel 64 and IA-32 System Programming Guid section 16.12 and 30.11.5 for details.
