Lying to whom? And for what purpose? > Christ, stop with the idiocy already. Come on. You're the one coming up with idiotic reasoning for the user space visible bogomips number. Give me at least one logical and rational reason why user space should get a timer clock value inconsequential to user space code through this interface and I'll shut up. Otherwise I'll interpret your heating up as your inability to provide such a reason.
