BogoMIPS working on DS5000/200 !

[Michael Engel <engel@unix-ag.uni-siegen.de>]

Hi Paul, Ralf and all you others,

the timer interrupt now seems to work well on the DS5000/200.

Thanks a lot, Paul & Ralf !

Now I'll try to adjust the HZ value to get a correct BogoMIPS number.
I'm currently using a timer interval of 64 Hz (15.625 ms) and set 
HZ to 64 in include/asm-mips/param.h [this _is_ the right place, I hope ...].

This shows us 3.11 BogoMIPS ... I don't think this is the correct value,
is it ? 

Btw., I forgot to mention that I indeed used pmax_printf in printk, so I got 
the BogoMIPS etc. printed. I changed printk to:

asmlinkage int printk(const char *fmt, ...)
{
        va_list args;
        int i;
        char *msg, *p, *buf_end;
        static char msg_level = -1;
        long flags;
 
        save_flags(flags);
        cli();
        va_start(args, fmt);
        i = vsprintf(buf + 3, fmt, args); /* hopefully i < sizeof(buf)-4 */
        buf_end = buf + 3 + i;
        va_end(args);

        for (p = buf + 3; *p ; p++) {
                pmax_printf("%c", *p);
        }
        restore_flags(flags);
        wake_up_interruptible(&log_wait);
        return i;
}
 
Bad hack, but actually works :-)

I'll also try changing the timer base address and run the kernel on my 
DS5000/20 ...
