Subject: [dpdk-stable] patch 'examples/timer: fix time interval' has been queued to stable release 19.11.9
Date: Thu, 10 Jun 2021 14:05:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210610120641.885862-6-christian.ehrhardt@canonical.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210610120641.885862-1-christian.ehrhardt@canonical.com>

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 19.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 06/12/21. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/075ddf5387cf934e36f60e7e9b495ea5f27ebc91

Thanks.

Christian Ehrhardt <christian.ehrhardt@canonical.com>

Subject: [PATCH] examples/timer: fix time interval

[ upstream commit 80aa15c4dff24e7a3b549f8dca37c16ae7220920 ]

Timer sample example assumes that the frequency of the timer is about
2Ghz to control the period of calling rte_timer_manage(). But this
assumption is easy to fail. For example. the frequency of tsc on ARM64
is much less than 2Ghz.

This patch uses the frequency of the current timer to calculate the
correct time interval to ensure consistent result on all platforms.

In addition, the rte_rdtsc() is replaced with the more recommended
rte_get_timer_cycles function in this patch.

Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
