MSR_KVM_STEAL_TIME: 0x4b564d03
data: 64-byte alignment physical address of a memory area which must be
in guest RAM, plus an enable bit in bit 0. This memory is expected to
hold a copy of the following structure:
struct kvm_steal_time {
__u64 steal;
__u32 version;
__u32 flags;
__u8 preempted;
__u8 u8_pad[3];
__u32 pad[11];
}
whose data will be filled in by the hypervisor periodically. Only one
write, or registration, is needed for each VCPU. The interval between
updates of this structure is arbitrary and implementation-dependent.
The hypervisor may update this structure at any time it sees fit until
anything with bit0 == 0 is written to it. Guest is required to make sure
this structure is initialized to zero.
Fields have the following meanings:
version: a sequence counter. In other words, guest has to check
this field before and after grabbing time information and make
sure they are both equal and even. An odd version indicates an
in-progress update.
flags: At this point, always zero. May be used to indicate
changes in this structure in the future.
steal: the amount of time in which this vCPU did not run, in
nanoseconds. Time during which the vcpu is idle, will not be
reported as steal time.
preempted: indicate the vCPU who owns this struct is running or
not. Non-zero values mean the vCPU has been preempted. Zero
means the vCPU is not preempted. NOTE, it is always zero if the
the hypervisor doesn't support this field.
