Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2013 20:31:42 -0000 From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de> To: LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Cc: John Stultz <john.stultz@...aro.org>, Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>, Magnus Damm <magnus.damm@...il.com> Subject: [patch 00/15] clocksource/events: Overhaul (un)registration The clocksource_unregister() interface is broken. A clocksource can be removed unconditionally even if there is no fallback clocksource available. clocksources in a module can be removed as well. Aside of that the registration part lacks a few sanity checks as well. The clockevents layer does not allow unregistration, but for reconfigurable hardware this is a must have feature. The following patch series fixes the clocksource part and adds unregister support for clockevent devices.
