From 08604bd9935dc98fb62ef61d5b7baa7ccc10f8c2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2009 15:31:12 -0700 Subject: time: move PIT_TICK_RATE to linux/timex.h PIT_TICK_RATE is currently defined in four architectures, but in three different places. While linux/timex.h is not the perfect place for it, it is still a reasonable replacement for those drivers that traditionally use asm/timex.h to get CLOCK_TICK_RATE and expect it to be the PIT frequency. Note that for Alpha, the actual value changed from 1193182UL to 1193180UL. This is unlikely to make a difference, and probably can only improve accuracy. There was a discussion on the correct value of CLOCK_TICK_RATE a few years ago, after which every existing instance was getting changed to 1193182. According to the specification, it should be 1193181.818181...
