Subject: [PATCH] cpu_x86: Probe TSC frequency and scaling support
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
When the host CPU supports invariant TSC the host CPU definition created
by virCPUx86GetHost will contain (unless probing fails for some reason)
addition TSC related data.
