thanks Andi - i've picked this up for x86.git, to get it tested. Len, 
what do you think? If/when you pick it up into the ACPI tree i'll drop 
it from x86.git.

 I actually think this is true on Intel too for C2 states on CPUs with 
 p-state invariant TSC, but this needs further discussions with Len to 
 really confirm :-)
 
 So far it is only enabled on AMD.

[PATCH] [18/20] x86: Don't disable TSC in any C states on AMD Fam10h

2008-01-02 Thread Andi Kleen

The ACPI code currently disables TSC use in any C2 and C3 
states. But the AMD Fam10h BKDG documents that the TSC
will never stop in any C states when the CONSTANT_TSC bit is 
set. Make this disabling conditional on CONSTANT_TSC
not set on AMD.

I actually think this is true on Intel too for C2 states
on CPUs with p-state invariant TSC, but this needs
further discussions with Len to really confirm :-) 

So far it is only enabled on AMD.

[PATCH] [18/20] x86: Don't disable TSC in any C states on AMD Fam10h

2008-01-02 Thread Andi Kleen

The ACPI code currently disables TSC use in any C2 and C3 
states. But the AMD Fam10h BKDG documents that the TSC
will never stop in any C states when the CONSTANT_TSC bit is 
set. Make this disabling conditional on CONSTANT_TSC
not set on AMD.

I actually think this is true on Intel too for C2 states
on CPUs with p-state invariant TSC, but this needs
further discussions with Len to really confirm :-) 

So far it is only enabled on AMD.
