Subject: [PATCH v3 08/18] KVM: x86/pmu: Switch to bitmask-based KVM PMU capabilities
Date: Thu,  5 Nov 2026 18:39:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106013927.166209-9-zide.chen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261106013927.166209-1-zide.chen@intel.com>

From: Dapeng Mi <dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com>

Intel platforms support non-contiguous fixed counters via CPUID.0AH:ECX
starting with PerfMon v5, and support non-contiguous GP counters
through the Architectural PerfMon Extension (CPUID leaf 23H).

struct x86_pmu_capability now exposes {,fixed_}cntr_mask64 bitmaps,
which may contain sparse bits representing non-contiguous counters.
Switch KVM's kvm_host_pmu and kvm_pmu_cap consumers over to the new
bitmask fields, including iterating kvm_host_pmu bitmasks directly in
VMX and SVM PMU MSR intercept setup.

CPUID.0AH:EAX[15:8] and CPUID.0AH:EDX[4:0] enumerate only contiguous
counters. Derive these values from kvm_pmu_cap.{,fixed_}cntr_mask64 as
the number of consecutive counters starting at index 0.

v3:
- Iterate kvm_host_pmu bitmasks directly in VMX and SVM intercept loops.
- Clamp nr_{gp,fixed}_counters to the number of contiguous counters
  supported by KVM in intel_pmu_refresh(). (Jim, Sashiko)
- Drop redundant !enable_mediated_pmu clamp on fixed_cntr_mask64. (Sashiko)
