If the hardware supports TSC scaling, Hyper-V will set bit 15 of the HV_PARTITION_PRIVILEGE_MASK in guest VMs with a compatible Hyper-V configuration version. Bit 15 corresponds to the AccessTscInvariantControls privilege. If this privilege bit is set, guests can access the HvSyntheticInvariantTscControl MSR: guests can set bit 0 of this synthetic MSR to enable the InvariantTSC feature. After setting the synthetic MSR, CPUID will enumerate support for InvariantTSC.

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.
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.
