[PATCH 0/2] KVM: arm64: Prevent spurious PMU accesses when no

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

 



Yet another PMU bug that is only likely to hit under Nested Virt: we
unconditionally access PMU registers without checking whether it
actually is present.

Given that we already have a predicate for this, promote it to a
static key, and use that in the world switch.

Thanks to Andre for the heads up!

  KVM: arm64: Turn kvm_arm_support_pmu_v3() into a static key
  KVM: arm64: Don't access PMSELR_EL0/PMUSERENR_EL0 when no PMU is
    available
