Hi. I was redirected from the community forums and I desperately need advice.
I am trying to use IRQ11 for HPET and I have programmed the HPET Timer 2 comparator register to 500ms. Whenever I enable IRQ11, I get a trigger every 20us instead.
Main problem is I did not yet enable the HPET, only the IRQ11 interrupt in PIC and this happens. No matter what value I put in comparator 2, it is always 20us.
I have a hunch that since HPET shares IRQ11, this might be cause by either SERIRQ, PIRQx, or SCI.
My board is a Kontron using E3815, running under VxWorks but I am also looking at the UEFI BIOS programming side.
I am debugging now in the UEFI Shell, and assuming I have the EDK2 Workspace, which part of the UEFI programming determines the use of IRQ11?
I have attached a snapshot of my ISR using GPIO and that is where I got the measurement response of IRQ11.
I am completely at loss right now and until I hear something from Kontron support, I need to figure out the cause of this issue from UEFI perspective. Is it also doable to create an ISR in UEFI so I can replicate the problem?
Can anyone give me some direction?
Many thanks,
Josh

Hi Carlos A.,
Good day. I am working to find a solution to this as I have yet to hear on the Kontron side. I am on a tight deadline and that is why I resorted to the embedded community for inputs.
HPET is not new technology and it is common to all Intel platforms. That is why I need very much help in which part of UEFI might be responsible for assigning IRQ11.
I am looking at EDKII for any instance of HPET and IRQ11 but it would be of great help if someone would point me to the right direction.
My objective is to find which part of the UEFI code is also controlling IRQ11 (SERIRQ, SCI, or PIRQx) and replicating the issue on UEFI Shell will greatly help me.
With best regards,
Josh
