Dear Scott Wood,
In message 20090331213202.GB19920@ld0162-tx32.am.freescale.net you wrote:
Is there any particular reason not to change the powerpc get_timer implementation to use the timebase (scaled down to ms)?
I think so. There are some boards where we actually measure the system clock frequency against a known reference clock. IIRC this requires the TB to be independent, or something like that. [It's a long time since that code was written.]
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
