On my test machine, in set_time_scale(), the following code: ts->mul_frac = div_frac(MILLISECS(1000), tps32); crashes with a division by zero error if tps32 == 1000000000d. Unfortunately, tps32 is often that value. Does anyone know why this happens? I''ve resolved it temporarily by checking for tps32 == 1000000000 and changing the value slightly (101000010d...

Respin of the paravirt clock patch series. On the host side the kvm paravirt clock is made compatible with the xen clock. On the guest side some xen code has been factored out into a separate source file shared by both kvm and xen clock implementations. This time it should work ok for kvm smp guests ;) cheers, Gerd

paravirt clock source patches, next round, with a bunch of changes in the host code according to Avi's review comments and some minor code tweaks. cheers, Gerd

paravirt clock source patches, next round. There is now a pvclock-abi.h file with the structs and some longish comments in it and everybody is switched over to use the stuff in there. Some minor tweaks after super-fast review by Jeremy. The queue is on top of the kvm git tree. The first two patches should have no kvm dependencies and should apply to linus tree just fine. cheers, Gerd

Unlike full virtualization in which the virtual machine provides the same platform interface as running natively on the hardware, paravirtualization requires modification to the guest operating system to work with the platform interface provided by the hypervisor. Xen was designed with performance in mind. Calls to the hypervisor are minimized, batched if necessary, and non-critical codepaths

This patch series implements the Linux Xen guest in terms of the paravirt-ops interface. The features in implemented this patch series are: * domU only * UP only (most code is SMP-safe, but there's no way to create a new vcpu) * writable pagetables, with late pinning/early unpinning (no shadow pagetable support) * supports both PAE and non-PAE modes * xen console * virtual block
