Subject: [clocksource] jiffies as clocksource kills box
Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2008 06:49:28 +0100	[thread overview]

Greetings,

Per $subject, echo jiffies > current_clocksource pretty thoroughly kills
my P4 box, and does so with every kernel I have (2.6.22->present).  I
can drive the box via mouse clicks and poke around, but trying to select
another clocksource thereafter is nogo.. cat current_clocksource emits
jiffies, and box remains comatose unless prodded.

config attached

	-Mike

(I don't miss it, stumbled across while rummaging elsewhere...)
