This isn't how we generally handle CPU properties corresponding to features. The standard setup is: * if the CPU can't have feature foo, no property * if the CPU does have feature foo, define a property, so the user can turn it off See also my longer explanation in reply to this patch in v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAFEAcA_HWfCU09NfZDf6EC=rpvHn148avySCztQ8PqPBMFx4_Q@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ > Signed-off-by: Akihiko Odaki <akihiko.odaki@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- > The "pmu" property is added only when the PMU is available.

This seems to me like a bug in the test. > diff --git a/target/arm/cpu.c b/target/arm/cpu.c > index dcedadc89eaf..e76d42398eb2 100644 > --- a/target/arm/cpu.c > +++ b/target/arm/cpu.c > @@ -1761,6 +1761,10 @@ void arm_cpu_post_init(Object *obj) > > if (!arm_feature(&cpu->env, ARM_FEATURE_M)) { > qdev_property_add_static(DEVICE(obj), &arm_cpu_reset_hivecs_property); > + > + if (arm_feature(&cpu->env, ARM_FEATURE_V7)) { > + object_property_add_bool(obj, "pmu", arm_get_pmu, arm_set_pmu); > + } > } > > if (arm_feature(&cpu->env, ARM_FEATURE_V8)) { > @@ -1790,7 +1794,6 @@ void arm_cpu_post_init(Object *obj) > > if (arm_feature(&cpu->env, ARM_FEATURE_PMU)) { > cpu->has_pmu = true; > - object_property_add_bool(obj, "pmu", arm_get_pmu, arm_set_pmu); > } > > /* This would allow the user to enable the PMU on a CPU that says it doesn't have one. We don't generally permit that. thanks -- PMM
