This is the last part of patch set for core of ARM64 ACPI, and is based on the patch set part2 "Using ACPI MADT table to initialise SMP and GIC".
ACPI GTDT (Generic Timer Description Table) is used for ARM/ARM64 only, and contains the information for arch timer initialisation.
This patch trys to convert the arch timer to ACPI using GTDT.
After this patch set was posted, we already finished the SMP, GIC and arch timer initialisation, which all are essential for ARM64 core system running, then we will focus on converting the device drivers to ACPI.

Great, this can make things much simple, and the information which contains in ACPI GTDT table can be sufficient for timer initialization.

As mentioned on the previous patch, I think for the timebeing we should rely on CNTFREQ.
Additionally, if you need to do this we should have an analagous mechanism to clocksource_of_init() that performs this initialisation for ACPI, and here we can call a clocksource_*_init function that does the right thing.
There's no need for this file to know anything about ACPI.
Mark.

Oh, Amit already have some patches to introduce clocksource_acpi_init() like clocksource_of_init() did, please refer to the link below.

There's no need for this file to know anything about ACPI.
Oh, Amit already have some patches to introduce clocksource_acpi_init() like clocksource_of_init() did, please refer to the link below.

is this the idea you mentioned in your comments?
Something along those lines is far better than hardcoding arch_timer_acpi_init here.
Thanks, Mark.

arch_timer_acpi_init();As mentioned on the previous patch, I think for the timebeing we should rely on CNTFREQ.
Additionally, if you need to do this we should have an analagous mechanism to clocksource_of_init() that performs this initialisation for ACPI, and here we can call a clocksource_*_init function that does the right thing.

Thanks for the suggestion, will update it.
