If we picked 0 (any other fixed value), | then the guest would have to know that 0 doesn't mean that | MSR_PLATFORM_INFO returned 0, but that KVM doesn't emulate this MSR and | the value cannot be used. This is very similar to handling a #GP in the | guest, but also has a disadvantage, because KVM cannot say that | MSR_PLATFORM_INFO is 0. Simple emulation is not possible. Fix it by using rdmsr_safe(MSR_PLATFORM_INFO) in KVM guest to not trigger a #GP, then tsc will be calibrated by a fallback method: PIT, HPET etc. Reported-by: kernel test robot <xiaolong.ye@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@xxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Chen Yu <y.c.chen@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: H.
