high res timestamps and SMP
From: Chris Friesen

We have a requirement to have high-res timestamps available on SMP systems.
Assuming that we are running identical cpus, is a sync-up at boot time
enough to give usable time values, or do I need to do force periodic
re-syncs?
We're currently looking at MIPS, x86 (Xeons), and PPC.
Thanks,
Chris
