Subject: KVM: arm64: PMU: Restore the guest's EL0 event counting after migration
From: Reiji Watanabe <reijiw@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit f9ea835e99bc8d049bf2a3ec8fa5a7cb4fcade23 upstream.
Currently, with VHE, KVM enables the EL0 event counting for the
guest on vcpu_load() or KVM enables it as a part of the PMU
register emulation process, when needed. However, in the migration
case (with VHE), the same handling is lacking, as vPMU register
values that were restored by userspace haven't been propagated yet
(the PMU events haven't been created) at the vcpu load-time on the
first KVM_RUN (kvm_vcpu_pmu_restore_guest() called from vcpu_load()
on the first KVM_RUN won't do anything as events_{guest,host} of
kvm_pmu_events are still zero).
So, with VHE, enable the guest's EL0 event counting on the first
KVM_RUN (after the migration) when needed. More specifically,
have kvm_pmu_handle_pmcr() call kvm_vcpu_pmu_restore_guest()
so that kvm_pmu_handle_pmcr() on the first KVM_RUN can take
care of it.
