A handful of random selftests changes. Props to Maxim for figuring out a way to fix the PMU counters test. The following changes since commit c3f38fa61af77b49866b006939479069cd451173: Linux 6.10-rc2 (2024-06-02 15:44:56 -0700) are available in the Git repository at: https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux.git tags/kvm-x86-selftests-6.11 for you to fetch changes up to 4669de42aa6c78669975d58c92433cdedeb7c2c3: KVM: selftests: Increase robustness of LLC cache misses in PMU counters test (2024-06-28 08:44:03 -0700) ---------------------------------------------------------------- KVM selftests for 6.11 - Remove dead code in the memslot modification stress test. - Treat "branch instructions retired" as supported on all AMD Family 17h+ CPUs. - Print the guest pseudo-RNG seed only when it changes, to avoid spamming the log for tests that create lots of VMs. - Make the PMU counters test less flaky when counting LLC cache misses by doing CLFLUSH{OPT} in every loop iteration. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. David Alan Gilbert (1): KVM: selftests: remove unused struct 'memslot_antagonist_args' Manali Shukla (1): KVM: selftests: Treat AMD Family 17h+ as supporting branch insns retired Maxim Levitsky (1): KVM: selftests: Increase robustness of LLC cache misses in PMU counters test Sean Christopherson (2): KVM: selftests: Print the seed for the guest pRNG iff it has changed KVM: selftests: Rework macros in PMU counters test to prep for multi-insn loop tools/testing/selftests/kvm/lib/kvm_util.c | 9 ++++- .../kvm/memslot_modification_stress_test.c | 6 --- .../selftests/kvm/x86_64/pmu_counters_test.c | 44 ++++++++++++++-------- .../selftests/kvm/x86_64/pmu_event_filter_test.c | 35 +++-------------- 4 files changed, 41 insertions(+), 53 deletions(-)
