[PATCH] 2.6.18-rt7: fix more issues with 32-bit cycles_t in latency_trace.c

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

 



In addition to clock wrap check being falsely triggered with 32-bit cycles_t,
as noticed to Kevin Hilman, there's another issue: using %Lx format to print
32-bit values warrants erroneous values on 32-bit machines like ARM and PPC32.

---
PPC32 actually has 64-bit timebase counter, so could provide for 64-bit
cycles_t -- maybe it's worth to rewrite get_cycles() to read both lower and
upper registers?
