We've tried your suggestions and the printf write different values of 
the global MCT Timer. The current Fiasco.OC implementation don't uses 
the Global MCT Timer, it uses the CPU local timer. The system clock is 
updated in Timer::update_system_clock, incrementing the Kip::k()->clock 
value. This function is called in the Timer_tick::handle_timer. At this 
point we have added an printf to view if the timer is updating.

    Timer_tick::handle_timer(Irq_base *_s, Upstream_irq const *ui,
                              Thread *t, Cpu_number cpu)
    {
       Timer_tick *self = nonull_static_cast<Timer_tick *>(_s);
       self->ack();
       ui->ack();

    ++  Kip *k = Kip::k();

       Timer::update_system_clock(cpu);

    ++  if ( k->clock < 1000UL*20){
    ++   printf("  CLOCK:%llu\n",k->clock);
    ++   }

       if (Config::esc_hack && cpu == Cpu_number::boot_cpu())
         {
           if (Kconsole::console()->char_avail() && !Vkey::check_())
             kdb_ke("SERIAL_ESC");
         }
       self->log_timer();
       t->handle_timer_interrupt();
    }

We have only printed 20 values to don't overload the serial output with 
the ticks output. We have added some printf in the Delay::measure to 
check the clock values:

    Delay::measure()
    {
       Cpu_time t1;
       unsigned count = 0;

       Kip *k = Kip::k();
       Cpu_time t = Kip::k()->clock;

    ++  printf("  IN MEASURE CLOCK:  %llu\n",k->clock);
    ++  int i=0;

       Timer::update_timer(t + 1000); // 1ms
       while (t == (t1 = k->clock)){
         Proc::pause();
    ++    if(i==0){
    ++       printf("  MEASURE-WHILE : %llu : %llu\n",t,k->clock);
    ++       i++;
    ++   }
       }

       Timer::update_timer(k->clock + 1000); // 1ms
       while (t1 == k->clock)
         {
           ++count;
           Proc::pause();
         }

       return count;
    }

We have testes it on the Odroid-X2 and this is the serial output:

    Calibrating timer loop...
       IN MEASURE CLOCK: 20000
       MEASURE-WHILE :20000 : 20000

We have tested changing the amount of update_system_timer logged, but 
always the system waits to finish it and then enter in the "Calibrating 
timer loop". In the Delay::meause the clock always print the last value 
logged by the printf at Timer_tick::handle_timer.
It seems the the system clock is working and updating but at certain 
point it don't update anymore.
We have tested a little solution, forcing the system to try to pass this 
point. We have added a Proc::sti() call after the Proc::pause(). In this 
case the system prints differents values ​​for the clocks.
Somebody have any idea or suggestions about this problem on the Exynos4412?
Best regards
