Reference TSC Page

The hypervisor provides a partition-wide virtual reference time stamp counter (TSC) page that is overlaid on the partition's GPA space. A partition's reference TSC page is accessed through the reference TSC page MSR. A partition that possesses the AccessPartitionReferenceTsc privilege from the HV_PARTITION_PRIVILEGE_MASK enumeration can access the reference TSC page MSR.

The following sections describe the reference TSC page:
