[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 3/4] Add support for HPET periodic timer. |

Linux operates the HPET timer in legacy replacement mode, which means that
the periodic interrupt of the CMOS RTC is not delivered (qemu won't be able
to use /dev/rtc). Add support for HPET (/dev/hpet) as a replacement for the
RTC; the periodic interrupt is delivered via SIGIO and is handled in the
same way as the RTC timer.
