It looks rdpmcl() optimization is removed from this patch, right?

If AMD CPUs doesn't support rdpmc instruction, I think we should move this into vendor specific xxx_save/restore_pmu_context helpers(). > + rdmsrl(pmc->msr_eventsel, pmc->eventsel); > + if (pmc->counter) > + wrmsrl(pmc->msr_counter, 0); > + if (pmc->eventsel) > + wrmsrl(pmc->msr_eventsel, 0); > + } > + > + for (i = 0; i < pmu->nr_arch_fixed_counters; i++) { > + pmc = &pmu->fixed_counters[i]; > + rdmsrl(pmc->msr_counter, pmc->counter); > + if (pmc->counter) > + wrmsrl(pmc->msr_counter, 0); > + } > } > > void kvm_pmu_restore_pmu_context(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu) > { > + struct kvm_pmu *pmu = vcpu_to_pmu(vcpu); > + struct kvm_pmc *pmc; > + int i; > + > lockdep_assert_irqs_disabled(); > > static_call_cond(kvm_x86_pmu_restore_pmu_context)(vcpu); > + > + /* > + * No need to zero out unexposed GP/fixed counters/selectors since RDPMC > + * in this case will be intercepted.
