Thank you everybody for your help. I have passed this information along to the customer and asked for the reason they want to refer to the name of the clocksource.

Alma, what external tool depends on the specific name of a kernel clock? Why would it matter what the name of it is? thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
