RHEL Program Management

in kernel-2.6.18-128.1.4.el5 incremental patch (474091 comment #40) in kernel-2.6.18-128.1.6.el5 RH QA captured the problem when testing the NONSTOP_TSC feature with 32-bit kernel. She found the clock source under sys fs is still HPET on hp-xw8800-01.rhts.bos.redhat.com. Part of code got neglected from my original back port, because it doesn't appear in the corresponding Upstream commit. And upstream still use this: if (boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC)) return 0; The following incremental patch should be include to enable TSC as clock source by default in 32-bit kernel on Intel NHM and newer processors. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=474091#c44 An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report.
