What I want - is to make all virtual clocks run faster. This means, for example, if I run command 'sleep 10' on the guest, and virtual clocks are 10 times overclocked, this command should take 1 real second. In other words, all timers should be 10 times faster, even timers that wait for IO in the guest VM. At the point of virtual guest, nothing should say about fast timers. Only one thing - guest OS will think that virtual CPU is 10x slower than generic processor. Because it perform 10x lesser commands per tick. Yes, things like TSC should also be 10x faster.

So, how I can speedup qemu timers? I tried my own patches, but something recalibrates timers and speedup did not happen. Maybe you known how I can "speedup" guest OS with modifying guest kernel?
