I believe we still support CPUs that could have this issue on Linux, although such processors are increasingly rare.
The Intel Architecture Manual covers that RDTSC is tied to the processor frequency for Pentium M processors (family [06H], models [09H, 0DH]); for Pentium 4 processors, Intel Xeon processors
(family [0FH], models [00H, 01H, or 02H]); and for P6 family processors
For a constant rate that is not tied to the CPU frequency, you instead need: Pentium 4 processors, Intel Xeon processors (family [0FH], models [03H and higher]); for Intel Core Solo
and Intel Core Duo processors (family [06H], model [0EH]); for the Intel Xeon processor 5100 series and Intel
Core 2 Duo processors (family [06H], model [0FH]); for Intel Core 2 and Intel Xeon processors (family [06H],
DisplayModel [17H]); for Intel Atom processors (family [06H], DisplayModel [1CH]).
But even more so, it is technically dependent on querying that the CPU supports
Invariant TSC
by queryingCPUID 0x8000_0007
and then readingEDX bit 8
.QPC
on Windows andCLOCK_MONOTONIC
on Unix is supposed to normalize this, but historically there have been bugs.
