System: NetBSD yt 5.99.15 NetBSD 5.99.15 (YT) #10: Wed Jul 15 08:33:35 CEST 2009 wiz@yt:/archive/cvs/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/obj/YT amd64
Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
While updating from a kernel 20090712 to 20090714 and trimming down unused
drivers/options[*], the recognition of the CPUs changed:
-cpu0 at mainbus0 apid 0: Intel 686-class, 2672MHz, id 0x106a5
+cpu0 at mainbus0 apid 0: Intel 686-class, 3207MHz, id 0x106a5
Note the difference in MHz.

cpuctl identify 0 says:
# cpuctl identify 0
cpu0: Intel Core i7 (Nehalem) (686-class), 3207.36 MHz, id 0x106a5
cpu0: features  0xbfebfbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR>
cpu0: features  0xbfebfbff<PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CFLUSH,DS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR>
cpu0: features  0xbfebfbff<SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,SBF>
cpu0: features2 0x9ce3bd<SSE3,DTES64,MONITOR,DS-CPL,VMX,EST,TM2,SSSE3,CX16>
cpu0: features2 0x9ce3bd<xTPR,PDCM,DCA,SSE41,SSE42,POPCNT>
cpu0: features3 0x28100800<SYSCALL/SYSRET,XD,EM64T>
cpu0: features4 0x1<LAHF>
cpu0: "Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           W3520  @ 2.67GHz"
cpu0: I-cache 32KB 64B/line 4-way, D-cache 32KB 64B/line 8-way
cpu0: L2 cache 256KB 64B/line 8-way
cpu0: ITLB 64 4KB entries 4-way
cpu0: DTLB 64 4KB entries 4-way
cpu0: L3 cache 8MB 64B/line 16-way
cpu0: Initial APIC ID 0
cpu0: Cluster/Package ID 0
cpu0: Core ID 0
cpu0: SMT ID 0
cpu0: family 06 model 0a extfamily 00 extmodel 01

So the first MHz line was correct.

That in itself would just be wrong, but not a problem. However, it
affects timecounter and thus the system time:
 timecounter: Timecounter "clockinterrupt" frequency 100 Hz quality 0
-timecounter: Timecounter "TSC" frequency 2672830680 Hz quality 3000
+timecounter: Timecounter "TSC" frequency 3207408280 Hz quality 3000

The clock is now slow on this machine.

ad & joerg suggested the following patch (sorry about the whitespace):

        }
+       x86_write_psl(psl);
 }

 void

That changed the timecounter line to
timecounter: Timecounter "TSC" frequency 3207359080 Hz quality 3000
(slightly different value than above, but still majorly different to before).

[*] I've since rebooted with a GENERIC kernel from 20090714, but
the MHz are still wrong.

Correct the CPU GHz recognition?

 On ad's suggestion that it might be an optimization problem, I
 compiled the kernel with
 	makeoptions     COPTS="-O0"
 but it didn't change a thing.

 FWIW, my Q9450 sometimes reports the wrong speed too, though it
 does not seem to affect time.

 cpu0 at mainbus0 apid 0: Intel 686-class, 42028MHz, id 0x10677

 vs:

 cpu0: "Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad  CPU   Q9450  @ 2.66GHz"

 i have kern.timecounter.hardware = hpet0.

 Mine was set to "TSC" -- when I switch to hpet0, the time lost in 5
 minutes decreases from 50s to 0.004s. Thanks for the hint!

 So is it a bug with TSC or is it just caused by the wrong MHz
 recognition?

 So currently everything's back to normal, and the ACPI code was
 updated. No idea if the two are related or it's just coincidence.

Does this still need to be open? (If the problem hasn't recurred, i

 I don't have this machine any longer. Feel free to close.
