2.6.15 and CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I remember there was some talk about resetting the time on printk during the
boot to zero... Is that gone for 2.6.15?

I recently turned CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME on two machines and they identically
print things like this:

[17179569.184000] Linux version 2.6.15-K01_PIII_laptop (kalin@ss) (gcc
version 3.4.4 (Gentoo 3.4.4-r1, ssp-3.4.4-1.0, pie-8.7.8)) #2 PREEMPT Wed
Jan 11 09:56:21 JST 2006
[17179569.184000] BIOS-provided physical RAM map:
[17179569.184000]  BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009fc00 (usable)
[17179569.184000]  BIOS-e820: 000000000009fc00 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved)

[17179569.184000]  BIOS-e820: 00000000000ef000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved)

...

[17179591.768000] ReiserFS: hda5: checking transaction log (hda5)
[17179591.836000] ReiserFS: hda5: Using r5 hash to sort names
[17179605.172000] e100: eth0: e100_watchdog: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex

That is about t0 + 200 days :-) No, the box is not THAT slow :-D

Now, on two different boxen, the initial time is the same: 17179569.184000

What is this number?

Kalin.
