[Qemu-devel] [ PATCH ] hpet: recover timer offset correctly
Posted by Pavel Dovgalyuk 6 years, 4 months ago 
HPET saves its state by calculating the current time and recovers timer
offset using this calculated value. But these calculations include
divisions and multiplications. Therefore the timer state cannot be recovered
precise enough.
This patch introduces saving of the original value of the offset to
preserve the determinism of the timer.

Queued, thanks.

However, note that Maria should have been the author in the patch.  I've
fixed that.

Please put the extra data in a subsection and tie the subsection to a
property enabled by the machine type.  That avoids breaking backwards
migration compatibility.

I thought about it and haven't found how to preserve the backward migration compatibility
without breaking everything else.
Loading old (or compatible) snapshot without changing the version will corrupt the offset in
post_load.

There are lots of ways; for example you could initialise hpet_offset to
a dummy value in a pre-load and spot that in the post-load instead of
the version_id, or set a flag in a post-load on the subsection.
