Re: [Xen-users] ping in hvm domain not working correctly

[Stephan Seitz <s.seitz@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you encounter this problem only by using more than one VCPUs,
you might try to pin the HVM domU to cores located at one particular
CPU.  (e.g. cpu='2,3')
This is just a guess, but it might solve time shift problems.
