The current logic around configuring timers in libxl based on virDomainDef object is a bit brain dead. Unsupported timers are silently ignored and tsc is only recognized if it is the first timer specified.
Change the logic to reject unsupported timers and honor the tsc timer regardless of its order when multiple timers are specified.

Even if we wanted to enable it would have to be more specific than adding <viridian /> feature like with:
libxl_bitmap_set(&b_info->u.hvm.viridian_enable, LIBXL_VIRIDIAN_ENLIGHTENMENT_REFERENCE_BASE);
I'd think <viridian/> OS feature would enable LIBXL_VIRIDIAN_ENLIGHTENMENT_REFERENCE_BASE Yeap.
libxl_bitmap_set(&b_info->u.hvm.viridian_enable, LIBXL_VIRIDIAN_ENLIGHTENMENT_REFERENCE_TSC);
And this one would be enabled with
<clock> <timer name='hypervclock'/> </clock>
Is that correct? Should a hypervclock timer also include LIBXL_VIRIDIAN_ENLIGHTENMENT_TIME_REF_COUNT?
IIUC the TIME_REF_COUNT enlightenment is for older versions of windwos, whereas REFERENCE_TSC is the newer one and most performant. Presumably TIME_REF is included in the base viridian features.
and perhaps behind "#ifdef LIBXL_VIRIDIAN_ENLIGHTENMENT_REFERENCE_TSC" as this is only supported since Xen 4.6.0? And I think it would work with tsc_mode not being emulated? Relevant commit on Xen is dd94caca5 ("x86/viridian: add Partition Reference Time enlightenment") Anyhow this is probably not in the context of this series, just food for thought in case we want to have in the future.
Good points, and agree they could be addressed in a followup series that enables viridian enlightenments.

Initially I think it was spurious, but looking again I think it brings some needed whitespace between these sections of code.
Yeap that's what it sounded like, that is to separate these two sections.
