kvm: vmx: Allow guest read access to IA32_TSC
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Let the guest read the IA32_TSC MSR with the generic RDMSR instruction
as well as the specific RDTSC(P) instructions. Note that the hardware
applies the TSC multiplier and offset (when applicable) to the result of
RDMSR(IA32_TSC), just as it does to the result of RDTSC(P).
