Paul,
I think what you'll find is that determining this is cpu specific. I'm fairly sure it's not worth trying to generalize it. The implementations are already associated with the chipset/cpu code. Why move them?

That way SMM, romstage, and ramstage all use the same delay functionality. Reviewed-on: http://review.coreboot.org/3169
to the i945-based T60, it looks like the following code
+#include <stdint.h> +#include <cpu/x86/msr.h> +#include <cpu/x86/tsc.h> +#include "cpu/intel/haswell/haswell.h" + +unsigned long tsc_freq_mhz(void) +{ + msr_t platform_info; + + platform_info = rdmsr(MSR_PLATFORM_INFO); + return HASWELL_BCLK * ((platform_info.lo >> 8) & 0xff); +}
is generic enough and can be used by the northbridges i945, i5000 and Sandy Bridge as
#define MSR_PLATFORM_INFO 0xce
is true for the three of them.
that was incorrect. i945 and i5000 have the following code.
msr = rdmsr(0x198); divisor = (msr.hi >> 8) & 0x1f;
So where should `tsc_freq.c` be put and how should the header be included?
If two separate files have to be used, what would be a good naming? `tsc_freq_0x198.c` and `tsc_freq_0xce.c` is not very intuitive.
Thanks,
Paul
