[ovirt-devel] libvirtError: unsupported configuration: timer hypervclock doesn't support setting of timer tickpolicy

[Christopher Pereira]

It seems like we need to upgrade libvirt dependencies in master repo:

    Thread-78::ERROR::2015-04-29
    06:23:04,584::vm::741::vm.Vm::(_startUnderlyingVm)
    vmId=`6ec9c0a0-2879-4bfe-
    9a79-92471881ebfe`::The vm start process failed
    Traceback (most recent call last):
       File "/usr/share/vdsm/virt/vm.py", line 689, in _startUnderlyingVm
         self._run()
       File "/usr/share/vdsm/virt/vm.py", line 1800, in _run
         self._connection.createXML(domxml, flags),
       File
    "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/libvirtconnection.py", line
    126, in wrapper
         ret = f(*args, **kwargs)
       File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 3427,
    in createXML
         if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateXML()
    failed', conn=self)
    libvirtError: unsupported configuration: timer hypervclock doesn't
    support setting of timer tickpolicy

To reproduce, start a "Windows 2008 R2 x64" VM (no problem with Windows 
2012).
Glad to see that hv_ optimization flags are being supported, since they 
boost Windows VM performance using inhouse MS Hypervisor optimizations.
