timer. Previously, the various divisors were fixed which meant that while it gave somewhat reasonable stathz, etc. at hz=1000, it went off the rails with any other hz value. With these changes, we now pick a lapic timer hz based on the value of hz. If hz is >= 1500, then the lapic timer runs at hz. If 1500 hz >= 750, we run the lapic timer at hz * 2. If hz < 750, we run at hz * 4. We compute a divider at runtime to make stathz run as close to 128 as we can since stathz really wants to be run at something close to that frequency. Profiling just runs on every clock tick. So some examples: With hz = 100, the lapic timer now runs at 400 instead of 2000. stathz will be 133, and profhz = 400. With hz = 1000 (default), the lapic timer is still at 2000 (as it is now), stathz is at 133 (as it is now), and profhz will be 2000 (previously 666). MFC after: 2 weeks |
