Subject: [PATCH v2 01/12] KVM: x86/pmu: Update comments for AMD gp counters
Date: Wed,  2 Mar 2022 19:13:23 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220302111334.12689-2-likexu@tencent.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220302111334.12689-1-likexu@tencent.com>

From: Like Xu <likexu@tencent.com>

The obsolete comment could more accurately state that AMD platforms
have two base MSR addresses and two different maximum numbers
for gp counters, depending on the X86_FEATURE_PERFCTR_CORE feature.
