      Provide timespec to guests rather than jiffies clock. · 6c8dca5d
      Rusty Russell 提交于
      A non-periodic clock_event_device and the "jiffies" clock don't mix well:
      tick_handle_periodic() can go into an infinite loop.
      
      Currently lguest guests use the jiffies clock when the TSC is
      unusable.  Instead, make the Host write the current time into the lguest
      page on every interrupt.  This doesn't cost much but is more precise
      and at least as accurate as the jiffies clock.  It also gets rid of
      the GET_WALLCLOCK hypercall.
      
      Also, delay setting sched_clock until our clock is set up, otherwise
      the early printk timestamps can go backwards (not harmful, just ugly).

      This is the code for the "lg.ko" module, which allows lguest guests to
      be launched.

      lguest: the guest code · 07ad157f
      Rusty Russell 提交于
      lguest is a simple hypervisor for Linux on Linux.  Unlike kvm it doesn't need
      VT/SVM hardware.  Unlike Xen it's simply "modprobe and go".  Unlike both, it's
      5000 lines and self-contained.
      
      Performance is ok, but not great (-30% on kernel compile).  But given its
      hackability, I expect this to improve, along with the paravirt_ops code which
      it supplies a complete example for.  There's also a 64-bit version being
      worked on and other craziness.
      
      But most of all, lguest is awesome fun!  Too much of the kernel is a big ball
      of hair.  lguest is simple enough to dive into and hack, plus has some warts
      which scream "fork me!".
      
      This patch:
      
      This is the code and headers required to make an i386 kernel an lguest guest.
