[PATCH RT 13/16] hwlat-detector: Use trace_clock_local if available

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Mon Sep 09 2013 - 09:38:33 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

As ktime_get() calls into the timing code which does a read_seq(), it
may be affected by other CPUS that touch that lock. To remove this
dependency, use the trace_clock_local() which is already exported
for module use. If CONFIG_TRACING is enabled, use that as the clock,
otherwise use ktime_get().
