[Bug 727459] Re: TSC is not reliable under Xen on some Intel CPUs
@Joe, please open a new bug report for this. I am not sure that in your case there will be the same unreasonable high process times in top. And even if, the kernel version for EC2 in Precise had very special Xen code. So it is unlikely the same bug re-surfacing. I believe "ubuntu-bug linux" should work from the ec2 instance. If not you can report into a file with "apport-cli --save linux" and the submit it from a ubuntu desktop with "apport-cli ". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/727459 Title: TSC is not reliable under Xen on some Intel CPUs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/727459/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 727459] Re: TSC is not reliable under Xen on some Intel CPUs
I would rather suspect that this is no problem after 10.04 as Xen code is much more integrated into the common kernel code. As for the patch. I sort of was hitting this while going over a big set of changes that we are missing and I think the way it currently is was a bug while porting the initial patchset. To me it looks like the endif should have always been afer setting the variable. I will reference this bug report in my changes, so it gets updated when I am finally done with the whole update. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/727459 Title: TSC is not reliable under Xen on some Intel CPUs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Doug -- do we know if this is still an issue with Natty instances in -ec2? I would like to confirm this is at least fixed in the next release. If you are able to test and confirm that would be very helpful.
