[PATCH 1/2] lguest: handle dodgy/non-existent TSC. Host code.
...SC speeds (informing all the guests about the TSC impending change before it happens would be a great deal of code and have issues with disobedient guests). This patch makes the host determine if the TSC is both constant and stable: if not, it doesn't tell the guest to use it. We export check_tsc_unstable() for this.

[PATCH 0/10] Integrate msr.h
Hello, This series of patches integrates msr.h header. What it really does, is a series of steps to allow us to get rid of duplicate code between i386 and x86_64 versions With this done, achieving paravirt for x86_64 gets really easy, just a couple of extra code. The first patch was already sent a while ago, but was not yet pushed to any tree , to my knowledge. So it is sent again. Also,

Guest TSC and Xen (Intel and AMD feedback please)
Various versions of Linux under various circumstances select TSC as the primary clocksource for the kernel. This is especially true for uniprocessor kernels, but also in some cases for multiprocessor kernels. In most cases, this is because a processor bit (tsc_invariant? constant_tsc?) is passed through directly from the hardware via Xen and tested by the hvm guest and the result implies that
