Although BCM2711 still includes the old BCM2835 system timer, the newer per-core local timers are preferred because they are more efficient to access and can generate core-specific interrupts. Make the usage clear by disabling the driver for the old STC. See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1702 Signed-off-by: Phil Elwell <phil@raspberrypi.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
