[Patch v3] x86/time: Update wallclock in shared info when altering domain time offset
domain_set_time_offset() udpates d->time_offset_seconds, but does not correct the wallclock in the shared info, meaning that it is incorrect until the next XENPF_settime hypercall from dom0 which resynchronises the wallclock for all domains.

Changes since v2: * No real need to write the wallclock at shinfo-create time. Given f8e8fd56, it will be correct before an HVM PV aware domain can actually get at it, and this avoids use of a global lock (even though the use is brief). Changes since v1: * s/watchdog/wallclock/ - Stupid typo. --- xen/arch/x86/time.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/xen/arch/x86/time.c b/xen/arch/x86/time.c index cf8bc78..f047cb3 100644 --- a/xen/arch/x86/time.c +++ b/xen/arch/x86/time.c @@ -931,6 +931,7 @@ void domain_set_time_offset(struct domain *d, int32_t time_offset_seconds) d->time_offset_seconds = time_offset_seconds; if ( is_hvm_domain(d) ) rtc_update_clock(d); + update_domain_wallclock_time(d); } int cpu_frequency_change(u64 freq) -- 1.7.10.4
