[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal/x86: implement x86 specific tsc hz

Wed Aug 23 17:00:26 CEST 2017


First, try to use CPUID Time Stamp Counter and Nominal Core Crystal
Clock Information Leaf to determine the tsc hz on platforms that
supports it (does not require priviledge user).

If the CPUID leaf is not available, then try to determine the tsc hz by
reading the MSR 0xCE (requires priviledge user).

Default to the tsc hz estimation if both methods fail.
