Commit Message

Haibo Xu Dec. 12, 2023, 9:31 a.m. UTC
Split the arch-neutral test code out of aarch64/arch_timer.c
and put them into a common arch_timer.c. This is a preparation
to share timer test codes in riscv.

- * arch_timer.c - Tests the aarch64 timer IRQ functionality
- *
  * The test validates both the virtual and physical timer IRQs using
- * CVAL and TVAL registers. This consitutes the four stages in the test.
- * The guest's main thread configures the timer interrupt for a stage
- * and waits for it to fire, with a timeout equal to the timer period.
- * It asserts that the timeout doesn't exceed the timer period.
- *
- * On the other hand, upon receipt of an interrupt, the guest's interrupt
- * handler validates the interrupt by checking if the architectural state
- * is in compliance with the specifications.
- *
- * The test provides command-line options to configure the timer's
- * period (-p), number of vCPUs (-n), and iterations per stage (-i).
- * To stress-test the timer stack even more, an option to migrate the
- * vCPUs across pCPUs (-m), at a particular rate, is also provided.
+ * CVAL and TVAL registers.
