[PATCH 1/2] x86/tsc: use CPUID.0x16 to calculate missing crystal frequency
From: Daniel Drake
Date: Mon Apr 22 2019 - 06:15:35 EST
native_calibrate_tsc() had a hardcoded table of Intel CPU families
and crystal clock, but we have found that it is possible to
calculate the crystal clock speed, and this is preferred to a hardcoded
table.
Where crystal clock frequency was not reported by CPUID.0x15,
use CPUID.0x16 data to calculate the crystal clock.
Using CPUID dump data from http://instlatx64.atw.hu/, the calculation
results can be seen to be sufficiently close to the previously hardcoded
values:
SKYLAKE_MOBILE: 24074074 Hz
SKYLAKE_DESKTOP: 23913043 Hz
KABYLAKE_MOBILE: 23893805 Hz
KABYLAKE_DESKTOP: 24050632 Hz
GOLDMONT: 19.2MHz crystal clock correctly reported by CPUID.0x15
Additionally, crystal clock frequency for platforms that were missing
from the list (e.g. SKYLAKE_X) will now be provided.
GOLDMONT_X was left as a hardcoded value, as the CPUID data on that site
indicates that the hardware does not report crystal clock nor CPUID.0x16
data.
Going forward, Intel have hopefully now started providing crystal
frequency in CPUID.0x15. At least ApolloLake, GeminiLake and CannonLake
CPUs all provide the relevant data directly.
