Inside a nested guest, access to hardware can be slow enough that tsc_read_refs always return ULLONG_MAX, causing tsc_refine_calibration_work to be called periodically and the nested guest to spend a lot of time reading the ACPI timer. However, if the TSC frequency is available from the pvclock page, we can just set X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ and avoid the recalibration. 'refine' operation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
