[PATCH 2.6.21-rt7] PowerPC: fix clockevents for classic CPUs

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

 



Uncoditionally set a maximum positive value to the decrementer before calling
an event handler for all "classic" PPC CPUs (although this is only necessary
to clear interrupt on POWER4+, I've been asked to do it this way) -- otherwise
it wouldn't have been done for an offline CPU in periodic mode since the event
reprogramming has been delegated to the timer subsystem.
Also, as the classic decrementer doesn't have periodic mode, make set_mode()
method for this case completely empty.
While at it, add a switch case for CLOCK_EVT_MODE_RESUME to hush the warning.

Testing on "classic" CPUs is still needed (used to work atop of 2.6.18-rt7).
