[PATCH v2 06/21] KVM: x86/pmu: WARN and bug the VM if PMU is refreshed after vCPU has run

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

 



Now that KVM disallows changing feature MSRs, i.e. PERF_CAPABILITIES,
after running a vCPU, WARN and bug the VM if the PMU is refreshed after
the vCPU has run.

Note, KVM has disallowed CPUID updates after running a vCPU since commit
feb627e8d6f6 ("KVM: x86: Forbid KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} after KVM_RUN"), i.e.
PERF_CAPABILITIES was the only remaining way to trigger a PMU refresh
after KVM_RUN.
