Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Allow ARAT CPU feature
Date: Sun, 24 May 2015 17:22:38 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5561ECBE.7010408@web.de> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1146 bytes --]

From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com>

There is no reason to deny this feature to guests. We are emulating the
APIC timer, thus are exposing it without stops in power-saving states.
