--- Comment #7 from Neel Chauhan <n...@neelc.org> ---
It's true that Linux does this (lines 660-661):
crystal_khz = eax_base_mhz * 1000 *
eax_denominator / ebx_numerator;
But in the same function, Linux returns this (line 674):
return crystal_khz * ebx_numerator / eax_denominator;
So the numerator and denominator in crystal_khz effectively cancels out on
CPUID 0x16.
>From what I understand, Linux expects the value in kilohertz, so a multiplier
of 1000 works on Linux. I believe FreeBSD expects hertz, so a multiplier of
1000000 is needed.
For unit conversion of megahertz to hertz, 1000 Hz = 1 KHz and 1000 KHz = 1
MHz, so 1 MHz = 1000 KHz * 1000 Hz.
Also, using the numerator and denominator wouldn't work (I've tried that, I got
a kernel panic).
