BZ: 1768622 Brew: https://brewweb.engineering.redhat.com/brew/taskinfo?taskID=28587593 commit 8171cd68806bd2fc28ef688e32fb2a3b3deb04e5 Commit 53fafdbb8b21f ("KVM: x86: switch KVMCLOCK base to monotonic raw clock") changed kvmclock to use tkr_raw instead of tkr_mono. However, the default kvmclock_offset for the VM was still based on the monotonic clock and, if the raw clock drifted enough from the monotonic clock, this could cause a negative system_time to be written to the guest's struct pvclock. RHEL5 does not like it and (if it boots fast enough to observe a negative time value) it hangs. There is another thing to be careful about: getboottime64 returns the host boot time with tkr_mono frequency, and subtracting the tkr_raw-based kvmclock value will cause the wallclock to be off if tkr_raw drifts from tkr_mono. To avoid this, compute the wallclock delta from the current time instead of being clever and using getboottime64.
