Subject: [PULL 06/32] target/riscv: No need to re-start QEMU timer when timecmp == UINT64_MAX
Date: Tue,  7 Feb 2023 17:09:17 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230207070943.2558857-7-alistair.francis@opensource.wdc.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230207070943.2558857-1-alistair.francis@opensource.wdc.com>

From: Anup Patel <apatel@ventanamicro.com>

The time CSR will wrap-around immediately after reaching UINT64_MAX
so we don't need to re-start QEMU timer when timecmp == UINT64_MAX
in riscv_timer_write_timecmp().

+     * it will become 0 again because time = 0 < timecmp = UINT64_MAX.
