发明名称 Timer facility for high frequency processors with minimum dependency of processor frequency modes
摘要 An apparatus, a method, and a computer program are provided for the generation of constant incremental increases while changing core clock frequencies. In computer systems, oftentimes frequency changes are useful. Maintaining the clocking ability of the computer system, though, can be a difficult task. To maintain the time keeping ability, time base logic is utilized with the free-running clock, which can be frequency limited. However, a plurality of communication channels in conjunction with an adder system is employed to effectively adjust for an ever increasing frequency to allow for a effective timekeeping regardless of the core frequency.
