Subject: Clock rate on MPC8xx CPUs
Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2003 14:10:41 +1200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F1B4BA1.6000204@tait.co.nz> (raw)


Greetings

Can anyone shed some light on a question of clock rates?

We're playing with the mpc866ads board and currently running both the
CPU core and bus at 50MHz to keep things simple. As a result it seems
that the internal Linux time is 50% out despite passing the clock rate
from u-boot as being 50MHz.

Since the mpc866 can run its core at x2 the bus rate, does the timer
setup in Linux for this port assume that the CPU _will_ be running at x2
from the rate passed at boot time or is there something else
'interesting' with this new '866 CPU :-))
