-		High Precision Event Timer Driver for Linux
-
-The High Precision Event Timer (HPET) hardware is the future replacement
-for the 8254 and Real Time Clock (RTC) periodic timer functionality.
-Each HPET can have up to 32 timers.  It is possible to configure the
-first two timers as legacy replacements for 8254 and RTC periodic timers.
-A specification done by Intel and Microsoft can be found at
-<http://www.intel.com/technology/architecture/hpetspec.htm>.
-
-The driver supports detection of HPET driver allocation and initialization
-of the HPET before the driver module_init routine is called.  This enables
-platform code which uses timer 0 or 1 as the main timer to intercept HPET
-initialization.  An example of this initialization can be found in
-arch/i386/kernel/time_hpet.c.
-
-The driver provides two APIs which are very similar to the API found in
-the rtc.c driver.  There is a user space API and a kernel space API.
-An example user space program is provided below.
