AFAIK, *no* Linux hvm > > guest prefers timer_mode==1. > > Solaris does :) Hi John -- Perhaps you can explain what timer_mode==1 does then? (E.g. how it differs from timer_mode==0 and timer_mode==2) I've never quite understood it and an attempt to document timer_mode that I posted several months ago left timer_mode==1 rather vague. http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2008-01/msg01223.html Other than being nice for Solaris (and Windows?), could you defend a default of timer_mode==1?
