[PATCH v7 08/12] KVM: x86/pmu: Advertise PERFCTR_CORE iff the min nr of counters is met

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

 



From: Like Xu <likexu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Enable and advertise PERFCTR_CORE if and only if the minimum number of
required counters are available, i.e. if perf says there are less than six
general purpose counters.

Opportunistically, use kvm_cpu_cap_check_and_set() instead of open coding
the check for host support.
