Yeah, I saw it before sending out the patches, but it is mentioned in TSC-deadline section which looks strange, if the timer is still disarmed when switching between one-shot and periodic mode before TSC-deadline is introduced and w/o TSC-deadline section？ > > So we should also disarm when switching between one-shot and periodic. > > apic_update_lvtt() already has logic to determine whether the timer mode > has changed and is the perfect place to clear APIC_TMICT.
