+
+ High resolution timer support. Implemented for i386 CPU using TSC.
+ Extracted generic grub_millisleep() so it's linked in only as needed.
+
+ * conf/i386-efi.rmk: Added TSC high resolution time module, link with
+ generic grub_millisleep() function.
+
+ * conf/i386-pc.rmk: Likewise.
+
+ * conf/sparc64-ieee1275.rmk: Add kern/generic/millisleep.c and
+ kern/generic/get_time_ms.c to kernel, to use generic time functions.
+
+ * conf/powerpc-ieee1275.rmk: Add kern/generic/millisleep.c to kernel,
+ to use generic grub_millisleep() function.
+
+ * kern/generic/get_time_ms.c (grub_get_time_ms): New file. Platform
+ independent implementation of grub_get_time_ms() using the RTC that
+ can be linked into a platform's kernel when it does not implement its
+ own specialized grub_get_time_ms() function.
+
+ * kern/generic/millisleep.c (grub_millisleep): New file. Extracted
+ from grub_millisleep_generic() in kern/misc.c and renamed. Now it is
+ not included in the kernel when a platform defines a specialized
+ grub_millisleep() implementation.
+
+ * include/grub/i386/tsc.h (grub_get_tsc): New file. Inline function
+ grub_get_tsc() uses x86 RDTSC instruction (available on Pentium+ CPUs)
+ to read the counter value for the TSC.
+
+ * kern/i386/tsc.c (grub_get_time_ms): x86 TSC support providing a high
+ resolution clock.
+ (grub_tsc_calibrate): Static function to calibrate the TSC using RTC.
+ (grub_time_init): Implemented to call the static grub_tsc_calibrate()
+ function to calibrate the TSC.
+
+ * include/grub/kernel.h (grub_time_init): Add declaration for the
+ grub_time_init() platform specific time initialization function. This
+ function should be implemented by all platforms. If kern/i386/tsc.c
+ is linked in, it will provide grub_time_init().
+
+ * include/grub/time.h (grub_get_time_ms): Added grub_get_time_ms()
+ function to return the current time in millseconds since the epoch.
+ This supports higher resolution time than grub_get_rtc() on some
+ platforms such as i386-pc, where the RTC has only about 1/18 s
+ precision but a higher precision timer such as the TSC is available.
+
+ * kern/i386/efi/init.c (grub_millisleep): Don't define
+ grub_millisleep() -- it just called grub_millisleep_generic() but now
+ we just need to link with kern/generic/millisleep.c to use the generic
+ implementation.
+
+ * kern/i386/pc/init.c (grub_millisleep): Likewise.
+
+ * kern/ieee1275/init.c (grub_millisleep): Don't define
+ grub_millisleep() -- it just called grub_millisleep_generic() but now
+ we just need to link with kern/generic/millisleep.c to use the generic
+ implementation.
+ (grub_get_time_ms): Implement this required function. Simply uses the
+ prior implementation of grub_get_rtc().
+ (grub_get_rtc): Now calls grub_get_time_ms(), which does the real
+ work.
+ (grub_time_init): Define this empty but required function. No further
+ initialization necessary.
+
+ * kern/sparc64/ieee1275/init.c (grub_millisleep): Don't define
+ grub_millisleep(), just link with kern/generic/millisleep.c.
+ (grub_time_init): Define this required function. Does nothing since
+ the generic RTC-based functions are used.
+
+ * kern/i386/linuxbios/init.c (grub_get_time_ms):
+ Define grub_get_time_ms() to always return 0. This should be fixed
+ when RTC functionality is implemented.
+ (grub_time_init): Define this required function as a no-op. Inserted
+ a comment to remind us delete this function when proper time support
+ is added to i386-linuxbios.
+
+ * kern/main.c (grub_main): Call grub_time_init() right after
+ grub_machine_init().
+
+ * kern/misc.c (grub_millisleep_generic): Moved to
+ kern/generic/millisleep.c so that it is only included in the kernel
+ image when a platform does not define a specialized version.
+
