Why do we care about 2.6.16 bugs in upstream KVM? The code to benefit tradeoff of this patch seems bad to me ... MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME is deprecated -- we could remove it now, with MSR_KVM_WALL_CLOCK (after hiding KVM_FEATURE_CLOCKSOURCE) if we want to support old guests. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
