From: Thomas Monjalon Date: Thu, 31 May 2012 17:00:31 +0000 (+0200) Subject: timer: get TSC frequency from /proc/cpuinfo X-Git-Tag: spdx-start~10955 X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=da6fd0759cbeb5fc14991a79e40105b9f6b99059;p=dpdk.git timer: get TSC frequency from /proc/cpuinfo TSC frequency was guessed by reading CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW or sleeping 1 sec. Now, read frequency from cpuinfo first. Keep other methods as fallbacks.
