Please stay consistent with the rest of the Kconfig.
config ARC_TIMER_RTC
bool "64-bit cycle counter in HS38 cores" if COMPILE_TEST
select CLKSRC_OF
help
This counter provides 64-bit resolution vs. the 32-bit TIMER1.
It is implemented inside the core thus can't be used in SMP systems.
config ARC_TIMER_GFRC
bool "64-bit cycle counter in ARConnect block in HS38x cores" if COMPILE_TEST
select CLKSRC_OF
help
This counter can be used as clocksource in SMP HS38 SoCs.
It sits outside the core thus can be used in SMP systems
Then in the ARC's Kconfig you select ARC_TIMER_RTC or ARC_TIMER_GFRC depending
it is SMP or not.
One question:
Why ARC_TIMER_RTC can't be used in a SMP system ? Doesn't have each core its
own clocksource ? It seems you are assuming a clocksource can be used on SMP
only if the clocksource is unique and shared across the cores.
