The frequency invariance support is currently limited to x86/64 and SMP, which is the vast majority of machines. arch_scale_freq_tick() is called every tick on all CPUs and reads the APERF and MPERF MSRs. The CPU frequency getters function do the same via dedicated IPIs. While it could be argued that on systems where frequency invariance support is disabled (32bit, !SMP) the per tick read of the APERF and MPERF MSRs can be avoided, it does not make sense to keep the extra code and the resulting runtime issues of mass IPIs around. As a first step split out the non frequency invariance specific initialization code and the read MSR portion of arch_scale_freq_tick(). The rest of the code is still conditional and guarded with a static key. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Rafael J.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
