How often do you get these messages? It is only showing you to be out
by about 130us, but I don't really see how even that can happen. Also,
the rate at which the below stream is coming out is about one error
per 15us, which is very rapid indeed. Is this running on CPU0 or CPU1
(on an SMP system)?
You might want to try changing the start of do_timer_interrupt() in
arch/xen/i386/kernel/time.c to what I have attached just below.
Another thing is to build Xen with performance counters (perfc=y make)
and then use the xenperf utility to see how many times Xen's scheduler
is being entered (this might account for the high rate of timer
interrupts you are seeing). Also looking at cat /proc/interrupts in
DOM1 may be interesting...
