Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] [Block issue] VMX status report 13161:a9a43705f26b
User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/11.3.2.061213
I've seen all manner of problems booting Linux guests since changesets 13115
(add HPET support), 13097 and 13096 (various changes to HVM platform timer
support). With luck there have been just one or two issues introduced that
are causing all these problems, but we'll have to throw out those patches if
the situation doesn't improve in the next week.

Xiaowei: I'm pretty sure I can eyeball bugs in the new vpt.c code. For
example, how can it be right that last_plt_gtime is incremented by period in
some places and period_cycles in others? The two quantities have different
units!
