That patch didn't work,<br>
one reason is that it has a mistake:<br>
in kern_tc.c you defined this macro:<br>
<br>
#define _Timecounter_Release(lock_context) \<br>
+ *_ISR_lock_ISR_disable_and_acquire*(&_Timecounter_Lock, lock_context)<br>
<br>
I think you meant:<br>
<br>
*_ISR_lock_Release_and_ISR_enable*(&_Timecounter_Lock, lock_context)<br>

Its strange, that this didn't lead to failures in Qemu.<br>

The other reason is that as I said, the driver checks for the flag PENDSTSET of the ICSR register, and I think this approach is wrong, because that flag goes down when the tick interrupt is attended. I used the solution I proposed before, but I'm still seeing some errors. I'll let you know what I find.<br>

Would you mind testing the attached second version of the patch?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
