Hi list,

I have a bsod when booting windows 2003 SP2 x64 with hpet enabled, with qemu 1.3. (screenshot attached)

/usr/bin/kvm -id 99999 -chardev socket,id=qmp,path=/var/run/qemu-server/99999.qmp,server,nowait -mon chardev=qmp,mode=control -vnc unix:/var/run/qemu-server/99999.vnc,x509,password -pidfile /var/run/qemu-server/99999.pid -daemonize -name win2003-32bit-proxmox2 -smp sockets=2,cores=1 -nodefaults -boot menu=on -vga cirrus -k fr -m 4000 -usbdevice tablet -drive if=none,id=drive-ide2,media=cdrom,aio=native -device ide-cd,bus=ide.1,unit=0,drive=drive-ide2,id=ide2,bootindex=200 -drive file=/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-3600144f0f62f0e0000004f6ec6fe00ba,if=none,id=drive-virtio0,aio=native,cache=none -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio0,id=virtio0,bus=pci.0,addr=0xa,bootindex=100 -netdev type=tap,id=net0,ifname=tap99999i0,script=/var/lib/qemu-server/pve-bridge,vhost=on -device virtio-net-pci,mac=BA:BD:4F:AE:DF:FD,netdev=net0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x12,id=net0,bootindex=300 -netdev type=tap,id=net1,ifname=tap99999i1,script=/var/lib/qemu-server/pve-bridge,vhost=on -device virtio-net-pci,mac=4E:68:E9:4B:57:7C,netdev=net1,bus=pci.0,addr=0x13,id=net1,bootindex=301 -rtc driftfix=slew,base=localtime


it's booting fine with adding -no-hpet to above command line.


above command line works fine with qemu-kvm 1.2.


One proxmox user report also win2003 R2 SP2 X32 high cpu usage with smp guest and hpet enabled. (qemu-kvm 1.2 or qemu 1.3)


Maybe it's in-kernel irqchip related ?

Any advise about enabling or disabling hpet on win2003 with in-kernel irqchip.


Best Regards,

Alexandre
