[PATCH 33/40] x86: KVM guest: paravirtualized clocksource
From: Avi Kivity
Date: Mon Mar 31 2008 - 10:47:47 EST
From: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@xxxxxxxxxx>
This is the guest part of kvm clock implementation
It does not do tsc-only timing, as tsc can have deltas
between cpus, and it did not seem worthy to me to keep
adjusting them.
We do use it, however, for fine-grained adjustment.
Other than that, time comes from the host.
