From 7719419deb07a431455dfb0178480ef4be2d3e2c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Axel Heider Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2022 15:09:50 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] target/imx: reload cmp timer outside of the reload ptimer transaction When running seL4 tests (https://docs.sel4.systems/projects/sel4test) on the sabrelight platform, the timer tests fail. The arm/imx6 EPIT timer interrupt does not fire properly, instead of a e.g. second in can take up to a minute to finally see the interrupt.
