When changing the mtime value, the period of [s|vs]timecmp timers should also be updated, similar to the period of mtimecmp timer. The period of the stimecmp timer is the time until the next S-mode timer IRQ. The value is calculated as "stimecmp - time". [1] It is equal to "stimecmp - mtime" since the time CSR is a read-only shadow of the memory-mapped mtime register. Thus, changing mtime value will update the period of stimecmp timer. Similarly, the period of vstimecmp timer is calculated as "vstimecmp - (mtime + htimedelta)" [2], so changing mtime value will update the period of vstimecmp timer. [1] RISC-V Priv spec ch 9.1.1. Supervisor Timer (stimecmp) Register A supervisor timer interrupt becomes pending, as reflected in the STIP bit in the mip and sip registers whenever time contains a value greater than or equal to stimecmp. [2] RISC-V Priv spec ch19.2.1. Virtual Supervisor Timer (vstimecmp) Register A virtual supervisor timer interrupt becomes pending, as reflected in the VSTIP bit in the hip register, whenever (time + htimedelta), truncated to 64 bits, contains a value greater than or equal to vstimecmp Signed-off-by: Jim Shu <jim.shu@sifive.com> Acked-by: Alistair Francis <alistair.francis@wdc.com> Message-ID: <20250519143518.11086-3-jim.shu@sifive.com> Signed-off-by: Alistair Francis <alistair.francis@wdc.com>pull/292/head
