davidg 96/07/02 05:46:29 Branch: sys/i386/i386 RELENG_2_1_0 Modified: sys/i386/i386 microtime.s Log: At the urgence of several people, not the least of whom are the folks of the Intel Architecture Lab, disabled the optimized Pentium microtime. It causes two bugs in 2.1.x: it doesn't account for laptops with power management and it sometimes is broken completely because the cycle_counter comes up with the wrong value. I've seen this latter bug occur dozens of times. The implementation in the main branch addresses some of these issues, but we're too close to the release to consider bringing in all of those changes, so this is the safest solution.
