[PATCH] x86/acrn: Set up timekeeping
Posted by Fei Li 3 years, 8 months ago
ACRN Hypervisor reports timing information via CPUID leaf 0x40000010.
Get the TSC and CPU frequency via CPUID leaf 0x40000010 and set the
kernel values accordingly.

Could you take a sec and consider what 'static inline' does and means
and also what setting:

	x86_platform.calibrate_cpu = acrn_get_tsc_khz;

does?

Using 'static inline' might compile, but it doesn't make sense.

Hi Dave

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, 'inline' doesn't make sense here.
Now this commit has been merged into the x86/platform branch of tip,
I will send a patch to remove 'inline' once this commit has been merged
into the master branch.

Thanks again.
