[Xen-devel] [PATCH 6/7] xen: Enable PV clocksource for HVM

[Sheng Yang <sheng@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

PV clocksource can provide a reliable clocksource for HVM running on Xen.

To enable it, put following line to the HVM configure file:

cpuid = [ '0x40000002:edx=0x3' ]

It would set bit 0 and bit 1 in 0x40000002:edx, which enable PV extension
framework and PV clocksource.
