Subject: [PATCH v7 1/6] x86/tsc: remove tsc_disabled flag
Date: Thu, 2 Nov 2017 13:26:39 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171102172644.28555-2-pasha.tatashin@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171102172644.28555-1-pasha.tatashin@oracle.com>
tsc_disabled is set when notsc is passed as kernel parameter. The reason we
have notsc is to avoid timing problems on multi-preccors systems. However,
we already have a mechanism to detect and resolve these issues by invoking
tsc unstable path.
