Hi Pavel,
I'm implementing a feature in ftrace to enable very early function
tracing, I'm using tsc when x86_tsc feature is available, but it seems
that you did similar work in your patch "[PATCH v9 0/6] Early boot
time stamps for x86".
I need to record timestamps at the start of start_kernel(), the first
function to be traced is set_task_stack_end_magic.
How early does the patch provide stable tsc ?
This is the patch that need to use very early time stamps :
