+ bool "Read the TSC timer base on start-up"
+ depends on X86_TSC_TIMER
+ help
+ On x86 platforms the TSC timer tick starts at the value 0 on reset.
+ This it makes no sense to read the timer on boot and use that as the
+ base, since we will miss some time taken to load U-Boot, etc. This
+ delay is controlled by the SoC and we cannot reduce it, but for
+ bootstage we want to record the time since reset as accurately as
+ possible.
+
+ The only exception is when U-Boot is used as a secondary bootloader,
+ where this option should be enabled.

U-Boot can be started from EFI on certain platforms. This allows
