I am using libkvm and believe it creates PIC and PIT by default. I see kvm_create make calls to:- 1. kvm_arch_create function which indeed calls kvm_create_pit and KVM_CREATE_PIT 2. kvm_create_irqchip function and KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP Is this understanding wrong? -Thanks Abhishek -----Original Message----- From: Avi Kivity [mailto:avi@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, August 20, 2009 8:21 AM To: Saksena, Abhishek Cc: kvm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: KVM's PIT and PIC programming question On 08/20/2009 06:05 PM, Saksena, Abhishek wrote: > Isn't by default PIT and PIC are initialized in Kernel?

I don't want to use LAPIC, can it be disabled in KVM.
