[kvm-unit-tests PATCH V2 1/2] x86/pmu: Add Intel Guest Transactional (commited) cycles testcase

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

 



From: Like Xu <likexu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

On Intel platforms with TSX feature, pmu users in guest can collect
the commited or total transactional cycles for a tsx-enabled workload,
adding new test cases to cover them, as they are not strictly the same
as normal hardware events from the KVM implementation point of view.

V1: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20221207071506.15733-1-likexu@xxxxxxxxxxx/
V1 -> V2 Changelog:
- Drop HLE check; (Weijiang)
- Print out the data here for each GP counter; (Weijiang)
- Use "unsigned int" for EAX; (Sean)
- Use mnemonic for XBEGIN; (Sean)
- Drop use of _xend(); (Sean)
- Use xbegin inline instead of processor.h to avoid conflicts with vmx_tests;
