Subject: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH v3] x86: Add RDTSC test
Date: Mon, 2 Dec 2019 12:43:57 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191202204356.250357-1-aaronlewis@google.com> (raw)
Verify that the difference between a guest RDTSC instruction and the
IA32_TIME_STAMP_COUNTER MSR value stored in the VMCS12's VM-exit
MSR-store list is less than 750 cycles, 99.9% of the time.
