Subject: [PATCH] ARM: imx: always use TWD on IMX6Q
Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.6/older/patches-4.6.2-rt5.tar.xz
There is no reason to limit the TWD to be used on SMP kernels only if the
hardware has it available.
On Wandboard i.MX6SOLO, running PREEMPT-RT and cyclictest I see as max
immediately after start in idle:
UP : ~90us
SMP: ~50us
UP + TWD: ~20us.
Based on this numbers I prefer the TWD over the slightly slower MXC
timer.
