Linux kernel source tree
688c50aa72
As we are about to be lazy with saving and restoring the timer registers, we prepare by moving all possible timer configuration logic out of the hyp code. All virtual timer registers can be programmed from EL1 and since the arch timer is always a level triggered interrupt we can safely do this with interrupts disabled in the host kernel on the way to the guest without taking vtimer interrupts in the host kernel (yet). The downside is that the cntvoff register can only be programmed from hyp mode, so we jump into hyp mode and back to program it. This is also safe, because the host kernel doesn't use the virtual timer in the KVM code. It may add a little performance performance penalty, but only until following commits where we move this operation to vcpu load/put.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
