KVM: L1 TSC handling
KVM assumed in several places that reading the TSC MSR returns the value for L1. This is incorrect, because when L2 is running, the correct TSC read exit emulation is to return L2's value. We therefore add a new x86_ops function, read_l1_tsc, to use in places that specifically need to read the L1 TSC, NOT the TSC of the current level of guest. Note that one change, of one line in kvm_arch_vcpu_load, is made redundant by a different patch sent by Zachary Amsden (and not yet applied): kvm_arch_vcpu_load() should not read the guest TSC, and if it didn't, of course we didn't have to change the call of kvm_get_msr() to read_l1_tsc(). [avi: moved callback to kvm_x86_ops tsc block] Signed-off-by: Nadav Har'El <nyh@il.ibm.com> Acked-by: Zachary Amsdem <zamsden@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
