1 /*
2  * test module to check whether the TSC-based delay routine continues
3  * to work properly after cpufreq transitions. Needs ACPI to work
4  * properly.
5  *
6  * Based partly on the Power Management Timer (PMTMR) code to be found
7  * in arch/i386/kernel/timers/timer_pm.c on recent 2.6. kernels, especially
8  * code written by John Stultz. The read_pmtmr function was copied verbatim
9  * from that file.
10  *
11  * (C) 2004 Dominik Brodowski
12  *
13  * To use:
14  * 1.) pass clock=tsc to the kernel on your bootloader
15  * 2.) modprobe this module (it'll fail)
16  * 3.) change CPU frequency
17  * 4.) modprobe this module again
18  * 5.) if the third value, "diff_pmtmr", changes between 2. and 4., the
19  *     TSC-based delay routine on the Linux kernel does not correctly
20  *     handle the cpufreq transition. Please report this to
21  *     linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
