All,
Currently the i386 HPET code assumes the entire HPET implementation
from the spec is present. This breaks on boxes that do not implement the
optional legacy timer replacement functionality portion of the spec.
This patch, which is very similar to my x86-64 patch for the same issue,
fixes the problem allowing i386 systems that cannot use the HPET for the
timer interrupt and RTC to still use the HPET as a time source. I've
tested this patch on a system systems without HPET, with HPET but
without legacy timer replacement, as well as HPET with legacy timer
replacement.
Comments and feedback would be appreciated.
thanks
