I have a similar setup. I solved it by writing a small daemon that syncs
system time from RTC time if the error is larger than 10 seconds. This
guarantees that my VM time will be in sync with the host very fast. If
I'd run ntpd it would take minutes for the resumed VM to notice that
something happened.
Yea I created another systemd service that will sync the time of all
running machines on host boot.
I was just wondering if I was missing something with libvirt-guests
and autostart.
I haven't noticed any issues with the time discrepancies on running
guests so I hope this will be enough.
