From 6b71845f497e11657ffaf67a2b2e51f5ab465f6d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Bowler Date: Sat, 6 Aug 2005 03:00:13 +0000 Subject: This fixes the problem with the tick count on NSLU2 boards by correcting the CLOCKS_PER_TICK in the kernel. It also (necessarily) removes the TICKADJ setting in the sysvinit nslu2 rcS-default. It adds a commented out TICKADJ to rcS-default - because that is supported now by the ntp 4.2.0 startup (ntpd) script in OE. --- packages/linux/nslu2-kernel/2.6/timer.patch | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 24 insertions(+) create mode 100644 packages/linux/nslu2-kernel/2.6/timer.patch (limited to 'packages/linux/nslu2-kernel') diff --git a/packages/linux/nslu2-kernel/2.6/timer.patch b/packages/linux/nslu2-kernel/2.6/timer.patch new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..6279746e64 --- /dev/null +++ b/packages/linux/nslu2-kernel/2.6/timer.patch @@ -0,0 +1,24 @@ +# Fix for the NSLU2 timer problem (tickadj 10101.01 when it should be 10000) +# Also contains a fix for the more generate problem on the ixp4xx in that the +# Intel spec says to use a 33.33MHz crystal, not 33.333333Mhz + +--- linux-2.6.12.2/include/asm-arm/arch-ixp4xx/timex.h.orig 2005-08-05 11:02:09.872690723 -0700 ++++ linux-2.6.12.2/include/asm-arm/arch-ixp4xx/timex.h 2005-08-05 11:45:08.786971567 -0700 +@@ -7,7 +7,14 @@ + + /* + * We use IXP425 General purpose timer for our timer needs, it runs at +- * 66.66...
