[PATCH 4/5] x86/vmware: Enable steal time accounting

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

 



Set paravirt_steal_rq_enabled if steal clock present.
paravirt_steal_rq_enabled is used in sched/core.c to
adjust task progress by offsetting stolen time.
Use 'no-steal-acc' off switch (share same name with KVM)
to disable steal time accounting.
