From: Andi Kleen Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2008 12:30:02 +0000 (+0100) Subject: clocksource: make clocksource watchdog cycle through online CPUs X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc1~1151^2 X-Git-Url: http://www.pilppa.org/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=6993fc5bbc5d63ccd55985b39c34417e430e75e9 clocksource: make clocksource watchdog cycle through online CPUs This way it checks if the clocks are synchronized between CPUs too. This might be able to detect slowly drifting TSCs which only go wrong over longer time.
