New Revision: 271044
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/271044

Log:
  Import a hackish tool I use to examine the skew of the TSC across
  CPUs in a system.  The tool queries the kernel for its set of CPUs
  and compares TSC values on each of the additional CPUs to the first
  CPU in turn.  It then outputs a table of simple statistics.

Added:

  head/tools/tools/tscdrift/Makefile   (contents, props changed)
  head/tools/tools/tscdrift/tscdrift.c   (contents, props changed)
