Chris Wilson 3fd49c9e48 tracing: Default to using trace_global_clock if sched_clock is unstable
Across suspend, we may see a very large drift in timestamps if the sched
clock is unstable, prompting the global trace's ringbuffer code to warn
and suggest switching to the global clock. Preempt this request by
detecting when the sched clock is unstable (determined during
late_initcall) and automatically switching the default clock over to
trace_global_clock.

This should prevent requiring user interaction to resolve warnings such
as:

    Delta way too big! 18446743856563626466 ts=18446744054496180323 write stamp = 197932553857
    If you just came from a suspend/resume,
    please switch to the trace global clock:
    echo global > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_clock

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
