| | I am working with an embedded testing board that has no timer external
| | to the cpu other than an rtc.  How does linux go about programming the
| | local cpu timer (apic) to raise hardware interrupts?

| | thanks for your patience,

| 
| you could take a look on apic_(32|64).c. Here is the
| function you need I hope - setup_APIC_timer
