RE: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] Add a timer mode that disables pending missed ticks



Hi Dan,
 
Hpet timer does have a fairly large error, as I was trying this one recently.
I don't remember what I got for error, but 1% sounds about right.
The problem is that hpet is not built on top of vpt.c, the module Keir and I did
all the recent work in, for its periodic timer needs. Try specifying clock=pit
on the linux boot line. If it still picks the hpet, which it might, let me know
and I'll tell you how to get around this.
 
Regards,
Dave

Sorry for the very late followup on this but we finally were able
to get our testing set up again on stable 3.1 bits and have
seen some very bad results on 3.1.3-rc1, on the order of 1%.

Test enviroment was a 4-socket dual core machine with 24GB of
memory running six two-vcpu 2GB domains, four hvm plus two pv.
All six guests were running LTP simultaneously.  The four hvm
guests were: RHEL5u1-64, RHEL4u5-32, RHEL5-64, and RHEL4u5-64.
Timer_mode was set to 2 for 64-bit guests and 0 for 32-bit guests.
All four hvm guests experienced skew around -1%, even the 32-bit
guest.  Less intensive testing didn't exhibit much skew at all.

A representative graph is attached.

Dave, I wonder if some portion of your patches didn't end up in
the xen trees?

(xm dmesg shows 8x Xeon 3.2GHz stepping 04, Platform timer
14.318MHz HPET.)

Thanks,
Dan

P.S. Many thanks to Deepak and Akira for running tests.
