This is a limitation in that the main counter may be valuable to applications seeking a high-resolution timer who have no use for the interrupt generating functionality of the comparators. This patch alters the open semantics so that when the device is opened, no timer is allocated. Operations that depend on a timer being in context implicitly attempt allocating a timer, to maintain backward compatibility. There is also an IOCTL (HPET_ALLOC_TIMER _IO) added so that the allocation may be done explicitly. (I prefer the explicit open then allocate pattern but don't know how practical it would be to require all existing code to be changed.) /dev/hpet is accessed via mmap(). This is the only interface of /dev/hpet that is actually used in practice.
