But if it does, the i8254 doesn't have to be running, so let's check to see if the timer works and not disable it if it's not. This fixes a segmentation fault when running Mac OS X as guest os.So the HPET works with Mac OS X with this patch? That's good to know since there was a fair bit of change from your original patch.Yes, works perfectly fine as long as you add the hpet descriptor in acpi.
Oh and the LPC of course, which tells osx where to look for the hpet, before it reads the acpi tables.

So far the only user in osx that uses the hpet I've encountered is the power management though - and so far that only checks if 1 ibterrupt arrives on bootup.But beth's changes do look sane, so I'd guess if anything the new implementation is more likely to work ;). My old was was actually just a hack to get osx running at all, so I'm really grateful someons cleaned it up.AlexSigned-off-by: Alexander Graf <address@hidden>Applied. Thanks.
