Subject: [PATCH v8 7/8] KVM: x86/pmu: Emulate RDPMC on performance metrics
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2026 11:31:41 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260817183143.226156-8-zide.chen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260817183143.226156-1-zide.chen@intel.com>

If the host has the PERF_METRICS capability but it's not present on
the guest, RDPMC interception must be enabled and KVM should inject
an #GP when the guest attempts a PERF_METRICS RDPMC.

If the guest has PERF_METRICS but RDPMC interception is enabled for
other reasons, KVM needs to emulate RDPMC with type 0x2000.

For simplicity, Metrics Clear Mode is not supported.
