Ouch, please revert! We have depended on this for testing to workaround BIOS issues (e.g. the USB SMI# handler firing at a bad time during boot causing the TSC frequency to be calculated incorrectly). I agree it's a hack that this works, but it has actually proven useful in the past. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
