Subject: allow 64-bit mode for HPET Timer0
References: bnc#456700
The kernel uses the HPET timers in 32-bit mode for clock-events.
While 32 bits, with a wrap-around time of >4 minutes, is probably
good enough for the clock-event purposes, on some chipsets this
has a negative side-effect on the HPET main counter.
Unlike the original HPET specification 1.0 from 2004, which does not
mention any side-effects of setting TN_32MODE_CNF on the
individual timers, the ICH9 documentation, for example, says:
NOTE: When this bit is set to 1, the hardware counter will
do a 32-bit operation on comparator match and rollovers, thus
the upper 32-bit of the Timer 0 Comparator Value register is
ignored. The upper 32-bit of the main counter is not involved
in any rollover from lower 32-bit of the main counter and
becomes all zeros.
(see http://www.intel.com/assets/pdf/datasheet/316972.pdf, page
819, section 21.1.5, Bit 8). I've seen this behaviour also on
ICH8. I have no idea what other chipsets are affected. But I have
seen AMD chipsets that Do The Right Thing.
This means, that when the kernel configures the Timer 0 to 32-bit
mode, on these chipsets it also cripples the 64-bit main counter
to 32 bits.
The HPET may be mmapped in userspace and the main counter
accessed directly by applications, expecting a 64-bit main
counter.
This patch allows the Timer0 to be configured in 64-bit mode
on x86_64 when a hpet64 command-line option is specified.
