I've only compile tested >at this point, but it should work. This isn't exactly a next68k issue ... but I've been looking at examples of timecounter support and generic tod support (because the evbarm ts7200 kernel compile broke because of the generic tod changes, and I figure I'd look at timecounter support when I was in there). The generic tod changes look simple enough. But ... I was under the impression for timecounters, you need to call tc_init to initialize the clock source at some point, and I don't see this in this patch. Am I wrong? Is there a guide to timecountering a port? Just a few paragraphs would be fine :-) --Ken
