Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal: generic counter based loop for CPU freq calculation
Date: Mon, 8 Jun 2020 16:34:17 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200608213417.9764-1-honnappa.nagarahalli@arm.com> (raw)
get_tsc_freq uses 'nanosleep' system call to calculate the CPU
frequency. However, 'nanosleep' results in the process getting
un-scheduled. The kernel saves and restores the PMU state. This
ensures that the PMU cycles are not counted towards a sleeping
process. When RTE_ARM_EAL_RDTSC_USE_PMU is defined, this results
in incorrect CPU frequency calculation. This logic is replaced
with generic counter based loop.
Bugzilla ID: 450
Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
