Subject: Re: [PATCHv3 03/10] ARM: smp_twd: Divorce smp_twd from local timer API
Date: Thu, 28 Mar 2013 15:22:55 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130328152255.GD30477@e106331-lin.cambridge.arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1363198676-30417-4-git-send-email-sboyd@codeaurora.org>

This works on my A9x4 coretile, bringing CPUs up and down via
/sys/devices/system/cpu/*/online, so:

Tested-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>

Otherwise, is there any reason we couldn't now use the twd driver on a UP
system? Or would the overhead of handling frequency change make this pointless?

Could you not depend on your "Push selects for TWD/SCU into machine entries"
for this?

Mark.
