Subject: [PATCH/RFC] Modify sched_clock() to make CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME more sane.
Date: Tue, 19 Jun 2007 16:35:57 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070619063557.GK9768@bakeyournoodle.com> (raw)

When booting a current kernel with CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME enabled you'll
see messages like:

[    0.000000] time_init: decrementer frequency = 188.044000 MHz
[    0.000000] time_init: processor frequency   = 1504.352000 MHz
[3712914.436297] Console: colour dummy device 80x25

This patch modifies sched_clock() to report the offset since the machine booted
so the same printk's now look like:

[    0.000000] time_init: decrementer frequency = 188.044000 MHz
[    0.000000] time_init: processor frequency   = 1504.352000 MHz
[    0.000135] Console: colour dummy device 80x25

Effectivly including the uptime in printk()s.
