Time went backwards / Stability issues

clocksource/0: Time went backwards
...n''ers! I''m having a problem with my new Xen-enabled colocation server.. I hope ( at least ;) ) one of you guys know how to fix this problem.. For a certain amount of time ( 1-2 days ) the domU runs fine.. until the console starts spitting out messages like these: [80182.004456] clocksource/0: Time went backwards: delta=-6917292717540055641 shadow=80182004054805 offset=400471 [80182.004507] clocksource/0: Time went backwards: delta=-6917292717540005396 shadow=80182004054805 offset=450712 [80182.004762] clocksource/0: Time went backwards: delta=-6917292717539750360 shadow=8018200405480...

Xen clocksources and timekeeping wiki page
Hello, I was thinking of creating a wiki page about Xen clocksources and timekeeping.. including dom0, PV guests and HVM guests. Dan and Jeremy: You guys might have some ideas for this page.. please let me know your thoughts :) Subjects to cover: - Xen hypervisor clocksources (hpet, acpi_pm, pit) - Xen dom0 clocksource, ntpd, etc - Xen PV guest clocksources,...

2.6.37 dom0 under Xen 4.1 clocksource not working
When booting 2.6.37 (from kernel.org) under Xen 4.1, there are apparently issues with timer interrupts being delivered to the dom0. Repeatedly causing an interrupt (for example, the ACPI power button) will allow the system to boot, as does adding "clocksource=jiffies" to the kernel command line. This is only present under Xen, not when booting the same kernel on real hardware. When boot with clocksource=jiffies, the system will sometimes freeze for about 30 seconds and then continue; however, this could be related to kernel debugging that I have e...

with heavy VM IO, clocksource causes random dom0 reboots

Resolve "Time went backwards" problem by using jiffies as clocksource
Hi All, I''m new to Xen and... Happy New Year! After restarting dom-0, my dom-u prints this in console once every second, [55082.616234] __ratelimit: 1503 messages suppressed [55082.616234] clocksource/0: Time went backwards: ret=380ab26c53a I resolved this by following the instructions in "http://wiki.debian.org/Xen", which is basically changing clocksource to "jiffies". Now the problem has gone away, I''m wondering if somebody can help me: 1. Is domain-0 not able...

RE: Instability with Xen, interrupt routing frozen, HPET broadcast
...ou > > can disable irqbalance in dom0. Good luck! Andreas Kinzler reported seeing soft-locks and hard-locks on Xen back in September 2010, associated with HPET broadcast. I''m seeing similar issues. If I disable C-states as Jimmy suggests above, the problem goes away. If I set the clocksource to pit, the problem goes away. It may go away also if I set the clocksource to pmtimer/acpi, or if I remove HPET from the list of available platform timers. Did this issue ever get resolved? Is there a better solution that using pit as a clocksource? I''d really prefer to not disable C...

Use of absolute timeouts for oneshot timers
...ervisor is booted. If they're operating off the same timebase, then in principle you can work out a constant offset between the two, and use that for converting a kernel absolute time into a hypervisor absolute time. When booting under Xen, you'll get this if you're using both the xen clocksource and clockevent drivers. However, it seems that during boot on a NO_HZ HIGHRES_TIMERS system, the kernel does not use the Xen clocksource until it switches to highres timer mode. This means that during boot the kernel's monotonic clock is drifting with respect to the hypervisor, and all timeou...

tick divider bugs
...the kernel divider= option in your vmware quest, you are probably aware of the bugs reported at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=315471 Someone @redhat "confirmed" the fix is in the test kernel -92. I tried it but it seems to have the same problem as before - when used with clocksource=pit, it hangs on bootup. Wonder if some of you can test this kernel and see how it goes. The test kernel is available from: http://people.redhat.com/dzickus/el5 Akemi
