This code appears to be unnecessary.

Both the get_counter_value() and get_load_time() callbacks are used as part of the 
CUDA emulation in hw/misc/macio/cuda.c as per the comment:

/* MacOS uses timer 1 for calibration on startup, so we use
  * the timebase frequency and cuda_get_counter_value() with
  * cuda_get_load_time() to steer MacOS to calculate calibrate its timers
  * correctly for both TCG and KVM (see commit b981289c49 "PPC: Cuda: Use cuda
  * timer to expose tbfreq to guest" for more information) */

Certainly for the 6522 device it is worth configuring with --target-list="ppc-softmmu 
m68k-softmmu" to make sure that you don't inadvertently break anything in the PPC world.

A bit of history here: the original mos6522.c was extracted from hw/misc/macio/cuda.c 
when Laurent presented his initial q800 patches since they also had their own 
implementation of the 6522, and it was better to move the implementation into a 
separate QEMU device so that the logic could be shared.

The Darwin kernel timer calibration loop is quite hard to get right: see 
https://opensource.apple.com/source/xnu/xnu-123.5/pexpert/ppc/pe_clock_speed_asm.s.auto.html 
and 
https://opensource.apple.com/source/xnu/xnu-123.5/pexpert/ppc/pe_clock_speed.c.auto.html. 
Ben/Alex came up with the current mechanism to fool the calibration routine, and I 
simply added in those callbacks to allow it to be implemented as part of the 
now-generic 6522 device.


ATB,

Mark.

No build failure here. Maybe your tree is different?

I didn't find any references to these methods (get_timer1_counter_value, 
get_timer2_counter_value, get_timer1_load_time and get_timer2_load_time).
It appears to be dead code, and it adds complexity and harms readability. 
The Linux kernel project has a policy that no code is added if it lacks 
any in-tree usage. Does QEMU have the same policy?
