24  * Traditionally, the PIT has been used to calibrate both the TSC and the
25  * APIC. As we transition to supporting alternate TSC calibration sources
26  * and using the TSC to calibrate the APIC, we may still want (for diagnostic
27  * purposes) to know what would have happened if we had used the PIT
28  * instead. As a result, if we are using an alternate calibration source
29  * we will still measure the frequency using the PIT and save the result in
30  * pit_tsc_hz for use by the APIC (to similarly save the timings using the
31  * PIT).
32  *
33  * A wrinkle in this is that some systems no longer have a functioning PIT.
34  * In these instances, we simply have no way to provide the 'what if the PIT
35  * was used' values. When we try to use the PIT, we first perform a small
36  * test to see if it appears to be working (i.e. will it count down). If
37  * it does not, we set pit_is_broken to let the APIC calibration code that
38  * it shouldn't attempt to get PIC timings.
39  *
40  * While the systems without a functioning PIT don't seem to experience
41  * any undesirable behavior when attempting to use the non-functional/not
42  * present PIT (i.e. they don't lock up or otherwise act funny -- the counter
43  * values that are read just never change), we still allow pit_is_broken to be
44  * set in /etc/system to inform the system to avoid attempting to use the PIT
45  * at all.
46  *
47  * In the future, we could remove these transitional bits once we have more
48  * history built up using the alternative calibration sources.

54  * On all of the systems seen so far without functioning PITs, it appears
55  * that they always just return the values written to the PITCTR0_PORT (or
56  * more specifically when they've been programmed to start counting down from
57  * 0xFFFF, they always return 0xFFFF no matter how little/much time has
58  * elapsed).
59  *
60  * Since we have no better way to know if the PIT is broken, we use this
61  * behavior to sanity check the PIT. We program the PIT to count down from
62  * 0xFFFF and wait an amount of time and re-read the result. While we cannot
63  * rely on the TSC frequency being known at this point, we do know that
64  * we are almost certainly never going to see a TSC frequency below 1GHz
65  * on any supported system.
66  *
67  * As such, we (somewhat) arbitrarily pick 400,000 TSC ticks as the amount
68  * of time we wait before re-reading the PIT counter. On a 1GHz machine,
69  * 1 PIT tick would correspond to approximately 838 TSC ticks, therefore
70  * waiting 400,000 TSC ticks should correspond to approx 477 PIT ticks.
71  * On a (currently) theoritical 100GHz machine, 400,000 TSC ticks would still
72  * correspond to approx 4-5 PIT ticks, so this seems a reasonably safe value.
