[kvm-devel] Time proceeds twice faster

2007-03-21 Thread Nakajima, Jun
I noticed that time proceeded twice as fast as the actual time in kvm-17 (not sure that it's a new issue, though). I used an x86-64 FC6 guest (local and IO APIC, w/ ACPI). Jun --- Intel Open Source Technology Center - Take S

[kvm-devel] [PATCH] SVM: forbid guest to execute monitor/mwait

2007-03-21 Thread Joerg Roedel
From: Joerg Roedel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> This patch forbids the guest to execute monitor/mwait instructions on SVM. This is necessary because the guest can execute these instructions if they are available even if the kvm cpuid doesn't report its existence. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <[EMAIL PROTEC

Grrr Andi refused to take my "rdmsr64" patch which moved to a function-like interface for MSRs, dismissing it as pointless churn. paravirt_ops cleanups changed a macro to an inline and spotted this kvm bug. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> diff -r 47c6ee74a5c5 drivers/kvm/vmx
