Reply-To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org List-Id: qemu-devel.nongnu.org List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org Hi, I have a unique situation where I want the virtual machine running on top of Qemu to be given a network packet at a prespecified time instant. Elaborately, let us say the clock in WindowsXP VM running on top of Qemu is now at 03:00:43 hours. I have a packet which I want the VM to read at exactly 03:00:50 hours. I know this should be possible since the general idea of running a VM is to be able to control every aspect of its state. Any pointers into how and where things should be altered to accomplish this ? thanks Krishnan
