From 5ad2592ab370b6c9030d1239940046bdeec9c2c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrei Warkentin Date: Fri, 17 Feb 2023 18:44:51 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] UefiCpuPkg: CpuTimerDxeRiscV64: fix tick duration accounting The TimerDxe implementation doesn't account for the physical time passed due to timer handler execution or (perhaps even more importantly) time spent with interrupts masked. Other implementations (e.g. like the Arm one) do. If the timer tick is always incremented at a fixed rate, then you can slow down UEFI's perception of time by running long sections of code in a critical section.
