Well, any steal time clock will be hypervisor specific, but if we agree that anything that enables CONFIG_PARAVIRT_TIME_ACCOUNTING provides a u64 steal_time_clock(int cpu) function then all should be well, right? The bit you have in kvm is almost that, except it assumes cpu == this_cpu. You simply cannot rely on the silly tick accounting to drive any clock, its archaic. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
