Date: Tue, 6 Nov 2007 20:18:53 -0200 From: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@...hat.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: jeremy@...p.org, avi@...ranet.com, aliguori@...ibm.com, kvm-devel@...ts.sourceforge.net, hollisb@...ibm.com Subject: KVM paravirt clocksource - Take 3 out of <put your number here> This is a new version of kvm paravirt clock implementation This time, the clockevents part was completely wiped out. Not that I'm dropping it: As said in my last message, I'm starting to take the path of having a specialized irq chip, as for avi-san's suggestion. However, last iteration made clocksources and clockevents a lot more independent, and so, turning it into a clocksource-only implementation was just a matter of deleting code - that can be later added almost as-is. It also favours people willing to use the clocksource, but going towards userspace HPET emulation, or things like this. The goal is to have this part included independently of the other bits. >From last release: * no more clockevents (for a while, hang on!) * per-vcpu hv_clock area, which led to... * no more purely tsc timing. If you have a new concern with this version, or I failed to address a previous concern of yours, just voice it! - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
