# HG changeset patch
# User Keir Fraser <keir.fraser@xxxxxxxxxx>
# Date 1255949916 -3600
# Node ID ad2fd7b94bd32e4256640a908ca3c8b40f505021
# Parent 5f28661bb2bbfd903b79d52e2aeabc4e4cb1f4d8
Allow guests to register secondary vcpu_time_info
Allow a guest to register a second location for the VCPU time info
structure for each vcpu. This is intended to allow the guest kernel
to map this information into a usermode accessible page, so that
usermode can efficiently calculate system time from the TSC without
having to make a syscall.
