Subject: [PATCH 11/11] KVM: Improve local apic timer wraparound handling
Date: Sun, 21 Oct 2007 13:08:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <11929648924174-git-send-email-avi@qumranet.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1192964892617-git-send-email-avi@qumranet.com>

From: Kevin Pedretti <kevin.pedretti@gmail.com>

Better handle wrap-around cases when reading the APIC CCR
(current count register).  Also, if ICR is 0, CCR should also
be 0... previously reading CCR before setting ICR would result
in a large kinda-random number.
