6 * We check whether all boot CPUs have their TSC's synchronized,
7 * print a warning if not and turn off the TSC clock-source.
9 * The warp-check is point-to-point between two CPUs, the CPU
10 * initiating the bootup is the 'source CPU', the freshly booting
11 * CPU is the 'target CPU'.
13 * Only two CPUs may participate - they can enter in any order.
14 * ( The serial nature of the boot logic and the CPU hotplug lock
15 * protects against more than 2 CPUs entering this code. )

25 * Entry/exit counters that make sure that both CPUs
26 * run the measurement code at once:
28 static __cpuinitdata atomic_t start_count;
29 static __cpuinitdata atomic_t stop_count;
32 * We use a raw spinlock in this exceptional case, because
33 * we want to have the fastest, inlined, non-debug version
34 * of a critical section, to be able to prove TSC time-warps:
36 static __cpuinitdata raw_spinlock_t sync_lock = __RAW_SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED;
37 static __cpuinitdata cycles_t last_tsc;
38 static __cpuinitdata cycles_t max_warp;
39 static __cpuinitdata int nr_warps;
42 * TSC-warp measurement loop running on both CPUs:
44 static __cpuinit void check_tsc_warp(void)
46 cycles_t start, now, prev, end;
53 * The measurement runs for 20 msecs:
55 end = start + tsc_khz * 20ULL;
60 * We take the global lock, measure TSC, save the
61 * previous TSC that was measured (possibly on
62 * another CPU) and update the previous TSC timestamp.

70 __raw_spin_unlock(&sync_lock);
73 * Be nice every now and then (and also check whether
74 * measurement is done [we also insert a 10 million
75 * loops safety exit, so we dont lock up in case the
76 * TSC readout is totally broken]):
78 if (unlikely(!(i & 7))) {
79 if (now > end || i > 10000000)
85 * Outside the critical section we can now see whether
86 * we saw a time-warp of the TSC going backwards:
88 if (unlikely(prev > now)) {
89 __raw_spin_lock(&sync_lock);
90 max_warp = max(max_warp, prev - now);
92 __raw_spin_unlock(&sync_lock);
96 "Warning: zero tsc calibration delta: %Ld [max: %Ld]\n",
97 now-start, end-start);
101 * Source CPU calls into this - it waits for the freshly booted
102 * target CPU to arrive and then starts the measurement:
104 void __cpuinit check_tsc_sync_source(int cpu)
109 * No need to check if we already know that the TSC is not

125 * Reset it - in case this is a second bootup:
127 atomic_set(&stop_count, 0);
130 * Wait for the target to arrive:
132 while (atomic_read(&start_count) != cpus-1)

147 " turning off TSC clock.\n", max_warp);

150 printk(" passed.\n");
154 * Reset it - just in case we boot another CPU later:
156 atomic_set(&start_count, 0);
162 * Let the target continue with the bootup:
164 atomic_inc(&stop_count);
168 * Freshly booted CPUs call into this:
170 void __cpuinit check_tsc_sync_target(void)
174 if (unsynchronized_tsc() || boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_TSC_RELIABLE))
178 * Register this CPU's participation and wait for the
179 * source CPU to start the measurement:
181 atomic_inc(&start_count);
182 while (atomic_read(&start_count) != cpus)
190 atomic_inc(&stop_count);
193 * Wait for the source CPU to print stuff:
