Linux kernel stable tree
d428487471
Exposes consumer library functions providing support for interfaces compatible with the venerable Intel 8254 Programmable Interval Timer (PIT). The Intel 8254 PIT first appeared in the early 1980s and was used initially in IBM PC compatibles. The popularity of the original Intel 825x family of chips led to many subsequent variants and clones of the interface in various chips and integrated circuits. Although still popular, interfaces compatible with the Intel 8254 PIT are nowdays typically found embedded in larger VLSI processing chips and FPGA components rather than as discrete ICs. A CONFIG_I8254 Kconfig option is introduced by this patch. Modules wanting access to these i8254 library functions should select this Kconfig option, and import the I8254 symbol namespace.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
