Is unimplemented sched_clock the reason why ftrace not show fine grain time?

Or is there any other thing which is wrong?


I think that's it. On my platform we have a free-running 1 MHz counter
so I implemented a platform sched_clock for that, and I get nice ftrace
times.

0) + 65.000 us | finish_task_switch();
0) | lock_sock_nested() {
0) + 52.000 us | local_bh_disable();
0) + 53.000 us | local_bh_enable();
0) ! 264.000 us | }

I don't understand why I should add any "new" free running counter because we have one free running counter which do it (clocksource timer - timer1). Or am I missing something?

Thanks for sending your code.
Michal
