Re: [gem5-dev] virtual timer in ARM KVM

2018-04-09 Thread Gabe Black
Ok, I've studied the ARM KVM implementation in the kernel, and it's pretty clear to me that it schedules a timer to keep track of physical time, and makes the virtual timer in the simulation track with that physical time. When reading the timer register values, even when the guest isn't running,

Hi Ciro, I think deactivating the github issues makes sense. And, I'll happily sign off on a patch to the CONTRIBUTING document if you want to create a quick review request :). @Ali: Could you add me to the gem5 github group? I can take care of removing the issue tracker and other github admin

If made collaborator, I commit to keep every spam out. But there is little to no spam on GitHub by default anyways. I feel that if users want to use GitHub issues, which seems to be the case, we should cater for their preferred communication mechanism. Issue trackers have several advantages,

Hi Everyone, I think the first thing we need to establish is whether we want to use GitHub for issue tracking in the first place. The issue tracker there was left enabled by accident. As some of you may recall, we used to run a Flyspray-based issue tracker a long time ago. If memory serves me
