Hi all,
Thanks for all the comments. Here's an updated dyntick patch.
Changes from last patch:
- Patch from Bernard Blackham for missing for cpu_has_local_apic()
- Fixed interrupt code as noted by Pavel Machek, Jonathan Corbet
and Venkatesh Pallipadi.
- Added kernel command line options as in the ARM patch
uggested by Russell King. You now need to pass:
dyntick=enable
and possibly dyntick=enable,forceapic if you have a P3 system that works
with dyntick with APIC. (P4 won't).
You can also enable dyntick via sysfs during runtime:
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/timer/timer0/dyn_tick_state
- Separated debug code into another optional patch available at:
http://muru.com/linux/dyntick/
Regards,
Tony

+config NO_IDLE_HZ
+ bool "Dynamic Tick Timer - Skip timer ticks during idle"
+ help
+ This option enables support for skipping timer ticks when the
+ processor is idle. During system load, timer is continuous.
+ This option saves power, as it allows the system to stay in
+ idle mode longer. Currently supported timers are ACPI PM
+ timer, local APIC timer, and TSC timer. HPET timer is currently
+ not supported.
+
+ Note that you need to enable dynamic tick timer either by
+ passing dyntick=enable command line option, or via sysfs:
+
+ # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/timer/timer0/dyn_tick_state
+
+config DYN_TICK_USE_APIC
+ bool "Use APIC timer instead of PIT timer"
+ help
+ This option enables using APIC timer interrupt if your hardware
+ supports it. APIC timer allows longer sleep periods compared
+ to PIT timer.
+
+ Note that on most recent hardware disabling PIT timer also
+ disables APIC timer interrupts, and system won't run properly.
+ Symptoms include slow system boot, and time running slow.
+
+ If unsure, don't enable this option.
+
+ Note that to you still need to pass dyntick=enable,forceapic
+ command line option to use APIC timer.
