- help
- Support the ACPI PM timer for time keeping. This is slow,
- but is useful on some chipsets without HPET on systems with more
- than one CPU. On a single processor or single socket multi core
- system it is normally not required.
- When the PM timer is active 64bit vsyscalls are disabled
- and should not be enabled (/proc/sys/kernel/vsyscall64 should
- not be changed).
- The kernel selects the PM timer only as a last resort, so it is
- useful to enable just in case.
