Subject: [patch 0/8] RFC: in-kernel timer emulation changes
Date: Sun, 05 Jul 2009 22:55:11 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090706015511.923596553@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

This still needs to survive kvm-autotest, posting early for comments.

It replaces hrtimer based emulation with ktime_t comparisons on guest
entry (avoids host load when guests are scheduled out, removes a
spinlock acquision on entry (i8254.c's inject_lock), and makes future
improvements easier).
