[PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: x86/pmu: Add PEBS support for SPR and future non-hybird models

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

 



From: Like Xu <likexu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Virtualization support for SPR PEBS has officially available in the
Intel SDM (June 2022) and has been validated on late stepping machines:

Compared to Ice Lake Server, the PDIR counter available (Fixed 0) on SPR
is unchanged, but the capability is enhanced to Instruction-Accurate PDIR
(PDIR++), where PEBS is taken on the next instruction after the one that
caused the overflow. Also, it introduces a new Precise Distribution (PDist)
facility that eliminates the skid when a precise event is programmed
on general programmable counter 0.

For guest usage, KVM will require the max precise level in both cases
mentioned above (other conditions may apply later), requesting the
correct hardware counter (PRIR++ or PDist) from host perf as usual.
