Changes since RFC:
- Handle disabled TSC page case [Radim Krčmář]
- Function/parameter renames [Radim Krčmář]
- Protect against simultaneous CPU shutdown (future-proof) [Radim Krčmář]
- BUG() in !CONFIG_HYPERV_TSCPAGE case [Stephen Hemminger, Paolo Bonzini]
- Fix build issues (hopefully) [kbuild test robot]
- Fix typos [Andrew Jones]
- Switch to delayed work to workaround a host issue (reported to Microsoft)
Changes are described in the individual patches too.
Original description:
Currently, KVM passes PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT to its guests when running in
so called 'masterclock' mode and this is only possible when the clocksource
on the host is TSC. When running nested on Hyper-V we're using a different
clocksource in L1 (Hyper-V TSC Page) which can actually be used for
masterclock. This series brings the required support.
Making KVM work with TSC page clocksource is relatively easy, it is done in
PATCH 5 of the series. All the rest is required to support L1 migration
when TSC frequency changes, we use a special feature from Hyper-V to do
the job.
Vitaly Kuznetsov (6):
x86/hyper-v: check for required priviliges in hyperv_init()
x86/hyper-v: add a function to read both TSC and TSC page value
simulateneously
x86/hyper-v: reenlightenment notifications support
x86/hyper-v: redirect reenlightment notifications on CPU offlining
x86/kvm: pass stable clocksource to guests when running nested on
Hyper-V
x86/kvm: support Hyper-V reenlightenment
