[PATCH 2/3] KVM: x86/pmu: Restrict advanced features based on module enable_pmu

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

 



From: Like Xu <likexu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Once vPMU is disabled, the KVM would not expose features like:
PEBS (via clear kvm_pmu_cap.pebs_ept), legacy LBR and ARCH_LBR,
CPUID 0xA leaf, PDCM bit and MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES, plus
PT_MODE_HOST_GUEST mode.

What these associative features have in common is that their use
relies on the underlying PMU counter and the host perf_event as a
back-end resource requester or sharing part of the irq delivery path.

Signed-off-by: Like Xu <likexu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Follow up: a pmu_disable kvm-unit-test will be proposed later.
