[Qemu-devel] Re: timing problems

2005-11-09 Thread space-wizard
Hi!

I checked my QEMU and I found the same Problems. I'm running SLES9 (x86) on
an SLES9 (ppc) host. The target clock runs faster(? I've got positive
offsets running ntpdate ?) than the host clock. I've tried severel kernel
parameters (eg. clock=pit or clock=pmtmr) without any success. 

The timing problems seem to be not only a problem with Windows XP as guest
os.

Best regards

christoph

From what I know, you'll just have to put up with it for now. Also, I
believe that ntpdate showing positive offsets means that the clock is
running slower. Run the date command before the ntpdate one to check
what the guest clock is at before the NTP update.

 time flies by at 5x the speed it should.

 PS. I'm susprised nobody has seen this problem before. Is it just me
 who experience it?

No, I experience this as well.

I'm running Qemu 0.7.2 with Linux 2.6.14 (vanilla kernel) as host OS and Windows
XP Professional as guest OS.  If the VM is running and actively using CPU, time
runs much faster in the guest than in the host.  On the other hand, if the VM is
mostly idle, time is slower in the guest than in the host OS.

This odd clock behavior seems to cause other problems in the guest OS,
particularly during boot/service initialization.

I can recreate this behavior with or without KQemu.

I can recreate this behavior with or without CPU frequency scaling enabled.

It is frustrating, and I would be very happy if someone could suggest a fix or
workaround.

Thanks,
Mike Smith
