The code\nwhich keeps track of jiffies and handles the long idle periods is shared\nbetween tick based and high resolution timer based dynticks. The dyntick\nfunctionality can be disabled on the kernel commandline. Provide also the\ninfrastructure to support high resolution timers.\n\nSigned-off-by: Thomas Gleixner \u003ctglx@linutronix.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nCc: john stultz \u003cjohnstul@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Roman Zippel \u003czippel@linux-m68k.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "f8381cba04ba8173fd5a2b8e5cd8b3290ee13a98", "tree": "ad8c9f91ce031a04c62ff75fcd3237fc666f1c2e", "parents": [ "906568c9c668ff994f4078932ec6ae1e3950d1af" ], "author": { "name": "Thomas Gleixner", "email": "tglx@linutronix.de", "time": "Fri Feb 16 01:28:02 2007 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Fri Feb 16 08:13:59 2007 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] tick-management: broadcast functionality\n\nWith Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n\nAdd broadcast functionality, so per cpu clock event devices can be registered\nas dummy devices or switched from/to broadcast on demand. The broadcast\nfunction distributes the events via the broadcast function of the clock event\ndevice.
