Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 04/14] x86/time.c: Use correct guest TSC frequency in tsc_get_info()



On 12/06/2015 03:58 PM, Haozhong Zhang wrote:
When the TSC mode of a HVM container is TSC_MODE_DEFAULT or
TSC_MODE_PVRDTSCP and no TSC emulation is used, the existing
tsc_get_info() uses the host TSC frequency (cpu_khz) as the guest TSC
frequency. However, tsc_set_info() may set the guest TSC frequency to a
value different than the host. In order to keep consistent to
tsc_set_info(), this patch makes tsc_get_info() use the value set by
tsc_set_info() as the guest TSC frequency.

IIUIC tsc_scale is host property and so why would it be used if TSC scaling is available to guests?
