[RFC PATCH 11/20] ARM: architected timers: Add A15 specific sched_clock implementation

Marc Zyngier marc.zyngier at arm.com
Wed Mar 2 11:53:17 EST 2011


Provide an A15 sched_clock implementation using the virtual counter,
which is thought to be more useful than the physical one in a
virtualised environment, as it can offset the time spent in another
VM or the hypervisor.
