Subject: [PATCH v2 14/16] KVM: x86/pmu: Ignore AnyThread bit if CPUID.0AH:EDX[15] is set
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2026 15:37:53 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260827223755.143247-15-zide.chen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260827223755.143247-1-zide.chen@intel.com>

Intel PerfMon v5 introduces the ANYTHREAD_DEPRECATION capability
(CPUID.0AH:EDX[15]) to indicate that AnyThread counting is deprecated
and that writes to the AnyThread bit in IA32_PERFEVTSELx are ignored.

When ANYTHREAD_DEPRECATION is present in the guest CPUID, emulate the
architectural behavior and silently ignore writes to the AnyThread bit
instead of injecting #GP.

Continue to inject #GP when ANYTHREAD_DEPRECATION is not present in the
guest CPUID, e.g. for PerfMon v3/v4 guests or when the capability is
not configured for a PerfMon v5+ guest.

Advertise CPUID.0AH:EDX[15] only for PMU version 5+ guests, since the
bit doesn't exist below version 5.

Signed-off-by: Zide Chen <zide.chen@intel.com>
---
v2:
- Advertise anythread_deprecated only if kvm_pmu_cap.version >= 5.
- Add the missing AnyThr bit handling for IA32_FIXED_CTR_CTRL.
- Update the comments to be clearer.
