I think it makes sense to document them, and arguably each counter
should have a man page, except for things that are somehow in
timecounter(9) instead (if they don't have a device name?).

There's also some weird edge-cases it'd be nice to document (or fix):

tl;dr: on CPU constrained GCE micro instances, "time" either proceeds
at the wrong rate and ntp can't sync, or sleeps go for too long.

I should probably send-pr that.

ACPI API

2021-11-13 Thread Riza Dindir
Hello

I am trying to use some of the ACPI tables inside a kernel driver. Is
there any documentation on the ACPI API?

I would appreciate any help, or pointer to any documentation.

Thanks in advance.
