Subject: [PATCH] [7/30] x86_64: Avoid overflows during apic timer calibration
Date: Tue, 1 May 2007 05:58:04 +0200 (CEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070501035804.940A313CAF@wotan.suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070501557.815359000@suse.de>
From: David P. Reed <dpreed@reed.com>
- Use 64bit TSC calculations to avoid handling overflow
- Use 32bit unsigned arithmetic for the APIC timer. This
way overflows are handled correctly.
- Fix exit check of loop to account for apic timer counting down
