Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] RE: Weird NOW() values after host S3 resume
Sorry for the late replay,

xen-unstable.hg suffer from a time went backwards bug after resume, I didn't 
tried to investigate any further.
in xen-3.2.0 it is sufficient to re-enable the hpet to solve most of the 
problems, but still NOW() returns a lower value than before sleep...
