From 0e6edceb8f18a4e31526d83e6099fef1f29c3af5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@tencent.com> Date: Mon, 20 May 2019 16:18:06 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: LAPIC: Fix lapic_timer_advance_ns parameter overflow MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit After commit c3941d9e0 (KVM: lapic: Allow user to disable adaptive tuning of timer advancement), '-1' enables adaptive tuning starting from default advancment of 1000ns. However, we should expose an int instead of an overflow uint module parameter.
