[patch 1/1] [PATCH] fio: fix s390 timing for older machines/binutils

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Christian Ehrhardt <ehrhardt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Older gcc/binutils or one with very low default march will refuse to use stckf.
On top of that machines older than a z196 don not even have the store clock
fast facility.

To fix all of those issues, check for the facilities in configure step and make
the usage of stckf and a matching march dependent to it.
