[Qemu-devel] [patch 1/2] target-i386: support "invariant tsc" flag


From: Marcelo Tosatti
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [patch 1/2] target-i386: support "invariant tsc" flag
Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2014 15:20:03 -0300
User-agent: quilt/0.60-1

Expose "Invariant TSC" flag, if KVM is enabled. From Intel documentation:

17.13.1 Invariant TSC The time stamp counter in newer processors may
support an enhancement, referred to as invariant TSC. Processor’s
support for invariant TSC is indicated by CPUID.80000007H:EDX[8].
The invariant TSC will run at a constant rate in all ACPI P-, C-.
and T-states. This is the architectural behavior moving forward. On
processors with invariant TSC support, the OS may use the TSC for wall
clock timer services (instead of ACPI or HPET timers). TSC reads are
much more efficient and do not incur the overhead associated with a ring
transition or access to a platform resource.
