target/arm: Handle overflow in calculation of next timer tick
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In commit edac4d8 back in 2015 when we added support for
the virtual timer offset CNTVOFF_EL2, we didn't correctly update
the timer-recalculation code that figures out when the timer
interrupt is next going to change state. We got it wrong in
two ways:
 * for the 0->1 transition, we didn't notice that gt->cval + offset
   can overflow a uint64_t
 * for the 1->0 transition, we didn't notice that the transition
   might now happen before the count rolls over, if offset > count

In the former case, we end up trying to set the next interrupt
for a time in the past, which results in QEMU hanging as the
timer fires continuously.

In the latter case, we would fail to update the interrupt
status when we are supposed to.

Fix the calculations in both cases.

The test case is Alex Bennée's from the bug report, and tests
the 0->1 transition overflow case.
