Subject: [PATCH] 2.6.18-rt7: fix more issues with 32-bit cycles_t in latency_trace.c
Date: Mon, 13 Nov 2006 00:23:12 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200611130023.12126.sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> (raw)

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.

Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com>

---
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?
