Commit 691a0c9c introduced a mechanism by which QEMU_CLOCK_HOST can notify other parts of the emulator when the host clock has jumped backward. This is used to avoid stalling timers that were scheduled based on the host clock. However, if the host clock jumps forward, then timers that were scheduled based on the host clock may fire rapidly and cause other problems. For example, the mc146818rtc periodic timer will block execution of the VM and consume host CPU while firing every interrupt for the time period that was skipped by the host clock. To correct that problem, this commit fires the reset notification if the host clock jumps forward by more than a hard-coded limit. The limit is currently set to a value of 60 seconds, which should be small enough to prevent excessive timer loops, but large enough to avoid frequent resets in idle VMs. Signed-off-by: NPaul Donohue <qemu-git@PaulSD.com> Message-Id: <20150612140845.GD2749@TopQuark.net> Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
