[PULL 6/7] target/i386: properly reset TSC on reset


From: Paolo Bonzini
Subject: [PULL 6/7] target/i386: properly reset TSC on reset
Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2022 08:07:05 +0100

Some versions of Windows hang on reboot if their TSC value is greater
than 2^54.  The calibration of the Hyper-V reference time overflows
and fails; as a result the processors' clock sources are out of sync.

The issue is that the TSC _should_ be reset to 0 on CPU reset and
QEMU tries to do that.  However, KVM special cases writing 0 to the
TSC and thinks that QEMU is trying to hot-plug a CPU, which is
correct the first time through but not later.  Thwart this valiant
effort and reset the TSC to 1 instead, but only if the CPU has been
run once.

For this to work, env->tsc has to be moved to the part of CPUArchState
that is not zeroed at the beginning of x86_cpu_reset.
