KVM: x86: disable master clock if TSC is reset during suspend (v3)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Updating system_time from the kernel clock once master clock
has been enabled can result in time backwards event, in case
kernel clock frequency is lower than TSC frequency.

Disable master clock in case its necessary to update it
from the resume path.
