Yup, this is a bit bogus. But this can be simplified by falling back
to the normal 32bit handling (on top of the pmu-unchained branch):
diff --git a/arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c b/arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c
index d8ea39943086..24908400e190 100644
--- a/arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c
+++ b/arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c
@@ -461,14 +461,10 @@ static u64 compute_period(struct kvm_pmc *pmc, u64 counter)
{
u64 val;
- if (kvm_pmc_is_64bit(pmc)) {
- if (!kvm_pmc_has_64bit_overflow(pmc))
- val = -(counter & GENMASK(31, 0));
- else
- val = (-counter) & GENMASK(63, 0);
- } else {
+ if (kvm_pmc_is_64bit(pmc) && kvm_pmc_has_64bit_overflow(pmc))
+ val = (-counter) & GENMASK(63, 0);
+ else
val = (-counter) & GENMASK(31, 0);
- }
return val;
}
which satisfies the requirement without any extra masking, and makes
it plain that only a 64bit counter with 64bit overflow gets its period
computed on the full 64bit, and that anyone else gets the 32bit
truncation.
I'll stash yet another patch on top and push it onto -next.
Thanks!
