+/* pvrdtscp algorithm
+ *
+ * This sample code demonstrates the use of the paravirtualized rdtscp
+ * algorithm. Using this algorithm, an application may communicate with
+ * the Xen hypervisor (version 4.0+) to obtain timestamp information which
+ * is both monotonically increasing and has a fixed 1 GHz rate, even across
+ * migrations between machines with different TSC rates and offsets.
+ * Further,the algorithm provides performance near the performance of a
+ * native rdtsc/rdtscp instruction -- much faster than emulation PROVIDED
+ * the application is running on a machine on which the rdtscp instruction
+ * is supported and TSC is "safe". The application must also be running in a
+ * PV domain. (HVM domains may be supported at a later time.) On machines
+ * where TSC is unsafe or the rdtscp instruction is not supported, Xen
+ * (v4.0+) provides emulation which is slower but consistent with the pvrdtscp
+ * algorithm, thus providing support for the algorithm for live migration
+ * across all machines.
+ *
+ * More information can be found within the Xen (4.0+) source tree at
+ * docs/misc/tscmode.txt
