[PATCH 2/4] KVM: x86: rewrite handling of scaled TSC for kvmclock

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Mon Feb 08 2016 - 10:18:44 EST


This is the same as before:

kvm_scale_tsc(tgt_tsc_khz)
= tgt_tsc_khz * ratio
= tgt_tsc_khz * user_tsc_khz / tsc_khz (see set_tsc_khz)
= user_tsc_khz (see kvm_guest_time_update)
= vcpu->arch.virtual_tsc_khz (see kvm_set_tsc_khz)

However, computing it through kvm_scale_tsc makes it possible
to include the NTP correction in tgt_tsc_khz, as done in the
next patch.
