Subject: [PATCH MANUALSEL 5.17 3/6] time/sched_clock: Round the frequency reported to nearest rather than down
Date: Sun,  5 Jun 2022 09:53:34 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220605135341.61427-3-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220605135341.61427-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: "Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@orcam.me.uk>

[ Upstream commit 92067440f1311dfa4d77b57a9da6b3706f5da32e ]

The frequency reported for clock sources are rounded down, which gives
misleading figures, e.g.:

 I/O ASIC clock frequency 24999480Hz
 sched_clock: 32 bits at 24MHz, resolution 40ns, wraps every 85901132779ns
 MIPS counter frequency 59998512Hz
 sched_clock: 32 bits at 59MHz, resolution 16ns, wraps every 35792281591ns

Rounding to nearest is more adequate:

 I/O ASIC clock frequency 24999664Hz
 sched_clock: 32 bits at 25MHz, resolution 40ns, wraps every 85900499947ns
 MIPS counter frequency 59999728Hz
 sched_clock: 32 bits at 60MHz, resolution 16ns, wraps every 35791556599ns
