Subject: [PATCH v3 15/21] KVM: selftests: Sanity check KVM's default TSC freq in nested TSC scaling test
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 10:36:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930173635.3362655-16-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260930173635.3362655-1-seanjc@google.com>
Explicitly verify that both L1 and L2 can run at KVM's default TSC
frequency reported via KVM_GET_TSC_KHZ, e.g. that KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ can take
in what KVM_GET_TSC_KHZ spits out.
