[PATCH 6/6] KVM: X86: Implement userspace interface to set virtual_tsc_khz

From: Joerg Roedel
Date: Wed Feb 09 2011 - 12:30:06 EST


This patch implements two new vm-ioctls to get and set the
virtual_tsc_khz if the machine supports tsc-scaling. Setting
the tsc-frequency is only possible before userspace creates
any vcpu.
