Subject: Xen 3.2.2 - Timer ISR/0: Time went backwards
Date: Mon, 04 Aug 2008 14:51:50 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <48974FC6.5010602@theshore.net> (raw)
Hardware:
Xen: 3.2.1-rc2 64bit
dom0: 2.6.18.8 at changeset 622, PAE
# xm dmesg | grep -e sync -e timer
(XEN) checking TSC synchronization across 8 CPUs: passed.
(XEN) Platform timer overflows in 234 jiffies.
(XEN) Platform timer is 3.579MHz ACPI PM Timer
(XEN) Machine check exception polling timer started.
Spools one of these to console every few seconds:
Timer ISR/0: Time went backwards: delta=-4270576170971
delta_cpu=254829029 shadow=2037844042151244163 off=261710497

6: 2037845844663081849
7: 2037841593777081849
A few t's into Xen's console:
(XEN) *** Serial input -> Xen (type 'CTRL-a' three times to switch input
to DOM0)
(XEN) Min = 2037829427350793281 ; Max = 2037848310626701146 ; Diff =
18883275907865 (18883275907 microseconds)
(XEN) Min = 2037829428349256182 ; Max = 2037848311625163843 ; Diff =
18883275907661 (18883275907 microseconds)
(XEN) Min = 2037829428565188930 ; Max = 2037848311841096807 ; Diff =
18883275907877 (18883275907 microseconds)
This particular box does this with 3.2.0 - 3.2.2-rc2. I have another
box doing the same thing, except the delta is more sane (0 - 2
microseconds), however eventually dom0 freezes.
