I think you touched based on it in a previous thread, but would you mind
to explain again why mach_absolute_time() is the right thing to check
cval against? If I read the headers correctly, the cnvt_off register
should be 0, so cntvct should be the reference time, no?
In my experiments I've found that CNTPCT_EL0 and CNTVCT_EL0 are the
same when read on the host (i.e. host CNTVOFF_EL2 = 0). When we look
at the guest we see that CNTPCT_EL0 corresponds to
mach_absolute_time() on the host and not host CNTPCT_EL0 (if you look
at XNU kernel sources you will see that mach_absolute_time() reads
CNTPCT_EL0 and adds a constant corresponding to the amount of time
that the machine spends asleep) so I think that what's going on at the
hypervisor level is that guest CNTPOFF_EL2 is being set to the same
constant to make it correspond to mach_absolute_time().


Yes, I can absolutely see how it's different from CNTPCT, but it should be identical to CNTVCT_EL0 inside QEMU, no?
