vm_clock is the same as rt_clock as long as: 1) you don't use -icount; 2) you don't stop the VM. Not pulsing the LED when the VM is stopped seems okay, so I think switching from rt_clock to vm_clock is the right thing to do. > But perhaps you were > right with the first approach, i.e. debugging -> deterministic (which > in this case would ideally also use the frequency derived from the > system clock passed to omap_lpg_init), normal work -> realtime. You should get this from -icount if you just use vm_clock. The overall series doesn't apply anymore, I'll split omap_lpg into its own patch and resend. Paolo
