[PATCHv6 1/3] arm64: cpufeature: Extract capped perfmon fields

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Andrew Murray <andrew.murray@xxxxxxx>

When emulating ID registers there is often a need to cap the version
bits of a feature such that the guest will not use features that the
host is not aware of. For example, when KVM mediates access to the PMU
by emulating register accesses.

Let's add a helper that extracts a performance monitors ID field and
caps the version to a given value.

Fields that identify the version of the Performance Monitors Extension
do not follow the standard ID scheme, and instead follow the scheme
described in ARM DDI 0487E.a page D13-2825 "Alternative ID scheme used
for the Performance Monitors Extension version". The value 0xF means an
IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED PMU is present, and values 0x0-OxE can be treated
the same as an unsigned field with 0x0 meaning no PMU is present.
