Ns Ar X Ns Va .clock controls event timers functionality support. Setting to 0, disables it. Default value is 1. .El .Sh DESCRIPTION This driver uses RTC hardware to supply kernel with time-of-day clock with 1 second resolution and one event timer. This hardware uses base frequency of 32768Hz for advancing time-of-day clock and generating periodic interrupts. Interrupts could be generated with fixed number of frequencies, from 2Hz to 8192Hz, obtained by dividing base frequency by one of supported power-of-2 divisors. .Pp Event timer provided by the driver is irrelevant to CPU power states. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr apic 4 , .Xr attimer 4 , .Xr eventtimers 4 , .Xr hpet 4
