[PATCH] KVM: vPMU: Don't program counter for interrupt-based event sampling w/o lapic_in_kernel

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

 



From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx>

vPMU depends on in-kernel lapic to deliver pmi interrupt, there is a
lot of overhead when creating/maintaining perf_event object, 
locking/unlocking perf_event_ctx etc for vPMU. It silently fails to 
deliver pmi interrupt if w/o in-kernel lapic currently. Let's not 
program counter for interrupt-based event sampling w/o in-kernel 
lapic support to avoid the whole bothering.
