[patch 13/18] time: export time information for KVM pvclock

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

 



As suggested by John, export time data similarly to how its
done by vsyscall support. This allows KVM to retrieve necessary
information to implement vsyscall support in KVM guests.
