Hi list, I'm using Alpine-virt linux (headless linux with 40Mb initial *.iso size) which has tsc issues. Alpine uses syslinux lightweight boot loader by default. In order to enable tsc I've added tsc=reliable tsc=noirqtime to /etc/update-extlinux.conf before console=ttyS0,115200 and updated it accordingly.
It seems no changes in tsc usage prior to /dev/rtc0 as boot log shows: ... * Setting system clock using the hardware clock [UTC] ...hwclock: select() to /dev/rtc0 to wait for clock tick timed out * Failed to set the system clock ... Does somebody know some way how set tsc as default clock source in Alpine 5.4.43-1-virt guest?
