Subject: [PATCH 3/6] Timer: expose monotonic clock and counter value
Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2019 07:24:27 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190917112430.45680-4-jianyong.wu@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190917112430.45680-1-jianyong.wu@arm.com>
A number of PTP drivers (such as ptp-kvm) are assuming what the
current clock source is, which could lead to interesting effects on
systems where the clocksource can change depending on external events.
For this purpose, add a new API that retrives both the current
monotonic clock as well as its counter value.
