[PATCH v7 00/19] KVM: x86/pmu: selftests: Fixes and new tests

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

 



Round 7!  Fix bugs where KVM incorrectly refuses to virtualize fixed
counters and events whose encodings match unsupported arch events, and add
a PMU counters selftest to verify

As an aside, my hope is that in the long term, we can build out the PMU
selftests and deprecate the PMU tests in KUT so that we have everything
in-kernel and in one spot.

v7:
 - Drop patches that unnecessarily sanitized supported CPUID. [Jim]
 - Purge the array of architectural event encodings. [Jim, Dapeng]
 - Clean up pmu.h to remove useless macros, and make it easier to use the
   new macros. [Jim]
 - Port more of pmu_event_filter_test.c to pmu.h macros. [Jim, Jinrong]
 - Clean up test comments and error messages. [Jim]
 - Sanity check the value provided to vcpu_set_cpuid_property(). [Jim]

v6:
 - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231104000239.367005-1-seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx
 - Test LLC references/misses with CFLUSH{OPT}. [Jim]
 - Make the tests play nice without PERF_CAPABILITIES. [Mingwei]
 - Don't squash eventsels that happen to match an unsupported arch event. [Kan]
 - Test PMC counters with forced emulation (don't ask how long it took me to
   figure out how to read integer module params).

v5: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231024002633.2540714-1-seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx
v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230911114347.85882-1-cloudliang@xxxxxxxxxxx
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20230814115108.45741-1-cloudliang@xxxxxxxxxxx
