Hi,
This is the first time I'm mailing LAKML, so please excuse me if I do
something silly (looks like I already did!).
I looked at arch/arm/lib/delay.S and it looks like __udelay and
__const_udelay won't work correctly for SMP cores. The code just uses
the loops_per_jiffy variable instead of the per-CPU loops per jiffy data.
Is anyone already working on a fix for that? If not, I can fix it up in
a way that's hopefully palatable to the community.
Thanks,
Saravana
