Because of the problems with time in virtualization, people are already conditioned to run ntpd inside their guests, and this kvmclock change will "fight" with ntpd. Also, the command "# date 09091323" (or whatever) ceases to work like it does on bare-metal, so I think it has to be an opt-in feature. -- Chris Lalancette -- 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
