* powerpc: Improve resolution of VDSO clock_gettimePaul Mackerras2008-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the clock_gettime implementation in the VDSO produces a result with microsecond resolution for the cases that are handled without a system call, i.e. CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC. The nanoseconds field of the result is obtained by computing a microseconds value and multiplying by 1000. This changes the code in the VDSO to do the computation for clock_gettime with nanosecond resolution. That means that the resolution of the result will ultimately depend on the timebase frequency. Because the timestamp in the VDSO datapage (stamp_xsec, the real time corresponding to the timebase count in tb_orig_stamp) is in units of 2^-20 seconds, it doesn't have sufficient resolution for computing a result with nanosecond resolution. Therefore this adds a copy of xtime to the VDSO datapage and updates it in update_gtod() along with the other time-related fields. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asmStephen Rothwell2008-08-03
from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
