KVM: PIT: fix count read and mode 0 handling

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Commit 46ee278652f4cbd51013471b64c7897ba9bcd1b1 causes Solaris 10 
to hang on boot.

Assuming that PIT counter reads should return 0 for an expired timer
is wrong: when it is active, the counter never stops (see comment on
__kpit_elapsed).

Also arm a one shot timer for mode 0.
