Hi Steven,

Since userspace is not involved yet (right?), no one will create the
PV_TIME device for guest (and no one will specify the IPA of the shared
stolen time region), and I guess we will get a "not supported" error
here.

So what should we do if we want to test this series now?  Any userspace
tools?  If no, do you have any plans for userspace developing? ;-)

Thanks,
zenghui
