Subject: [patch 5/9] Add all the necessary structures to the vsyscall page
Date: Thu, 01 Feb 2007 10:59:57 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070201103753.849165000@jet.suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070201095952.589234000@jet.suse.cz

The TSC-based Master Timer approximation code will need a couple of
per-CPU offsets and coefficients to approximate the value of a hardware
"Master Timer" based on the value of TSC on whichever CPU it will be
running.
We want to be able to do these approximations in a vsyscall, so we need
all this data in vsyscall-mapped pages.
