Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] ARM64: lib64: pbl: implement get_time_ns and is_timeout
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 12:13:05 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260811-feature-pbl-get-time-ns-v2-1-754ee021b19d@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260811-feature-pbl-get-time-ns-v2-0-754ee021b19d@pengutronix.de>
All ARMv8-A cores implement the 64bit wide generic timer CNTPCT[1], thus
we can use it to implement the get_time_ns and is_timeout helpers which
in turn enable the whole read_poll_timeout class of functions in the
PBL. As it is guaranteed that the timer will not wrap for 40 years no
overflow handling is necessary.
[1]: See "ARM Architecture Reference Manual for A-profile architecture
(rev L.a)", chapter D12 "The Generic Timer in AArch64 state"
