Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] Avoid spurious ptimer interrupts for non-zero cntpoff
Date: Mon, 4 Sep 2023 04:42:16 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230904114218.590304-1-gankulkarni@os.amperecomputing.com> (raw)
Guest-Hypervisor(NV use-case) uses ptimer as an arch_timer.
While running Guest-Hypervisor from a VHE host on a platform which
supports FEAT_ECV/CNTPOFF_EL2, burst of spurious ptimer interrupts
were generated for a non-zero offset, causing the boot to hang.
The issue is due to the value of CNTPOFF_EL2 is treated as zero while
on VHE host. This patch fixes the issue by adjusting the CVAL of a
loaded ptimer across the entry and exit of a guest.
v2:
Updated as per review comment [1].
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/a4dac5af-44e2-0485-446f-fae09fa66a3c@os.amperecomputing.com/
This patchset is rebased on NV-V10[2][3].
