  • While Intel's spec is not that clear here, latest changes to Linux' HPET
    code (commit c23e253e67c9d8a91a0ffa33c1f571a17f0a2403, "x86: hpet: stop
    HPET_COUNTER when programming periodic mode") strongly suggest that
    HPET_TN_SETVAL rather means: Set _both_ the comparator value and
    register.
    
    With this patch applied, I'm again able to boot 2.6.30-rc kernels as
    they no longer panic like this (which was due to the comparator
    register remaining 0):
    
    ENABLING IO-APIC IRQs
    ..TIMER: vector=0x30 apic1=0 pin1=2 apic2=-1 pin2=-1
    ..MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC
    ...trying to set up timer (IRQ0) through the 8259A ...
    ..... (found apic 0 pin 2) ...
    ....... failed.
    ...trying to set up timer as Virtual Wire IRQ...
    ..... failed.
    ...trying to set up timer as ExtINT IRQ...
    ..... failed :(.
    Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work! [...]

  • Fix (more or less) spurious guest boot failures due to corrupted cpuid
    states. The reason was insufficient initialization of cpuid entries
    before passing them to the kernel.
    
    At this chance also fix improper entry pointer progression and simplify
    the code a bit.
