When booting a current kernel with CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME enabled you'll see messages like:
[ 0.000000] time_init: decrementer frequency = 188.044000 MHz [ 0.000000] time_init: processor frequency = 1504.352000 MHz [3712914.436297] Console: colour dummy device 80x25 This cause by the initialisation of tb_to_ns_scale in time_init(), suddenly the multiplication in sched_clock() now does something :). This patch modifies sched_clock() to report the offset since the machine booted so the same printk's now look like: [ 0.000000] time_init: decrementer frequency = 188.044000 MHz [ 0.000000] time_init: processor frequency = 1504.352000 MHz [ 0.000135] Console: colour dummy device 80x25 Effectivly including the uptime in printk()s. This patch makes tb_to_ns_scale and tb_to_ns_shift static and read_mostly for good meassure.
