Pkg xen devel - Jul 2011 - Bug#632397: xen: /proc/uptime show idle bigger than uptime

Package: xen
Version: 4.0.1-2
Severity: normal


/proc/uptime shows idle bigger than uptime:

dom0:
% cat /proc/uptime
518389.91 944378.70
%

one domU:
% cat /proc/uptime 
417536.22 764826.15
%

another domU:
% cat /proc/uptime 
426960.17 795800.89
%

This is normal on multicore / ht cpu, but this is old amd:
% lscpu 
Architecture:          i686
CPU(s):                1
Thread(s) per core:    1
Core(s) per socket:    1
CPU socket(s):         1
Vendor ID:             AuthenticAMD
CPU family:            6
Model:                 10
Stepping:              0
CPU MHz:               2099.764
Hypervisor vendor:     Xen
Virtualization type:   none
L1d cache:             64K
L1i cache:             64K
L2 cache:              512K
%

This is plain x86 squeeze with 2.6.32-5-xen-686

reassign 632397 src:linux-2.6
thanks

This a kernel thing, not a Xen bug.
