[Xen-devel] Time went backwards again

[Holger Steinhaus <hsteinhaus@xxxxxx>]

I just tested a fresh version of xen-3.2-testing.hg on my small server
(2x Opteron 244, dual socket, single-core) . Everything seems to work,
unless I tried to activate frequency scaling.

After passing cpufreq=dom0-kernel to Xen and loading the powernow-k8
module in Dom0, the kernel begins to complain about timer problems (see
below). Using xen-unstable.hg leads to exactly the same preblems.
Besides the messages, powernow seems to be working as expected. Xen and
the kernel are compiled for AMD64 architecture.

Regards,
  Holger
