mentioned on Intel Skylake platform, I tried to reproduce it .However, these two cases could PASS on my Skylake machine. Could you double check it with the latest kvm-unit-tests or share me your SKL CPU model? CPU model on my SKL : 'Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6140 CPU @ 2.30GHz'. Passthrough PMU status: $cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/enable_passthrough_pmu $Y Kvm-unit-tests: https://gitlab.com/kvm-unit-tests/kvm-unit-tests.git Result: PASS: Intel: TSX cycles: gp cntr-3 with a value of 37 PASS: Intel: full-width writes: TSX cycles: gp cntr-3 with a value of 36 Tested-by: Yongwei Ma <yongwei.ma@xxxxxxxxx> Thanks and Best Regards, Yongwei Ma
